An Attempt To Tip The Scales lyrics

Did you expect it all to stop

At the wave of your hand?

Like the sun's just gonna drop

If it's night you demand.

Well, in the dark we're just air

So the house might dissolve,

But once we're gone, who's gonna care

If we were ever here at all?

Well, summer's gonna come,

It's gonna cloud our eyes again.

No need to focus

When there's nothing that's worth seeing.

So we trade liquor for blood

In an attempt to tip the scales.

I think you lost what you loved

In that mess of details.

They seemed so important at the time,

But now you can't even recall

Any names, faces, or lines,

It's more the feeling of it all.

Well, winter's gonna end,

I'm gonna clean these veins again

So close to dying that I finally can start living.
