spend all your time waiting for that second chance

for a break that would make it ok

and it's hard at the end of the day

i need some distraction, oh beautiful relief

memories seep through my veins

that may be empty, oh weightless and maybe
G Am D
i'll find some peace tonight
Chorus:

there' vultures and thieves at your back

that you make up for all that you lack

brings me to my knees
