Twenty-four Minus Eighteen Lyrics

Confidence, coming clean, ambivalent to everything



24 minus 18, find a problem for everything



Don't try to tell me what I mean



Don't try to build yourself from the outside



Don't try to make yourself; you'll break every time



Don't try to take your guilt and leave it behind



I carry mine



This lust will defeat us



I've learned too many times



You cuss when you see us



I'm taking all this in stride



I breathe too hard



My lungs are scarred



Have you tried to arrest yourself, arrested in time



Why change if you can't find the time



Try to make the most of this or get left behind



Everything comes at a price



You trust us when you need us



Why do I feel there's nothing inside



This crutch will relieve us



How can I fix this if I haven't tried



I want to send you roses before your death is staged



When understanding violence, suspects know their fate



I want another reason why I never help myself



I waste my days regretting why



Celebrate, Semper fi, Sic Transit Gloria



If you don't intend to go, never say that you want to



Stay home until you know, life's short, but quite a ride



Got 8 months to go, a tightened grip will get you through



Don't forget your goals,



time is on your side'as long as you're alive



You want some closure



You almost finished



But couldn't fool your pride



Out of nothing, fake forgiveness



Never satisfied



(What if I'd lied)
