Blackout Lyrics
Tragedy
Another day lies broken and lost
A shattered life cuts the pulse of acceptance
And all I want is to be something more then this
Another day lies broken and lost
A shattered life cuts the pulse of Acceptance
And all I want is to be anything but this
Sleepless nights spent screaming for answers
Cursing sweet venom at a wretched future
An open casket stained with hope
Laced with deceit and treachery
An existence I only wish to forget
Why do I always regret?
Those words leave the taste of blood
Forget my face
Just bury everything
Why do I always let it go?
‘Cause I've let it slip away between my finger tips
I've tried so fucking hard and still I could never gain a true understanding
Chocking at our misery
Splinters of failure cut like glass
And I'm sick of just pouring myself out into careless hands
Choking on our misery
Splinters of failure cut like glass
But I'll put it to rest tonight in the hope that maybe I won't have to wake
Another day lies broken and lost
A shattered life cuts the pulse of acceptance
And all I want is to be something more then this
Another day lies broken and lost
A shattered life cuts the pulse of Acceptance
And all I want is to be anything but this
Sleepless nights spent screaming for answers
Cursing sweet venom at a wretched future
An open casket stained with hope
Laced with deceit and treachery
An existence I only wish to forget
Why do I always regret?
Those words leave the taste of blood
Forget my face
Just bury everything
Why do I always let it go?
‘Cause I've let it slip away between my finger tips
I've tried so fucking hard and still I could never gain a true understanding
Chocking at our misery
Splinters of failure cut like glass
And I'm sick of just pouring myself out into careless hands
Choking on our misery
Splinters of failure cut like glass
But I'll put it to rest tonight in the hope that maybe I won't have to wake
Ill put it all to rest tonight
Forget my face
Forget my face
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
This song seems to address someone that is constantly living in a cycle of regret as they don’t take hold of their life. Instead of taking advantage of their time, time goes by them.
Thus the title track “Blackout” seems to cover this as they are in a state of blackout, similar to when somebody is “blackout drunk” and they forget everything that happened when drunk and only live with the regret and hangover of it all.
