Terra Alive - Insurance lyrics

Well, for the last couple of months
I've been playing shows in bars
Oh how silly to expect them to
Recognize a talent like mine, like mine
Oh well fuck it, they don't
But the bar scene is nowhere
As exciting as anticipating Friday
Nights every week our senior
Year in high school
When we drank 'cause we were happy
Now we drink 'cause we're bored
With our lives and our jobs

Now we drink 'cause we're borеd
With our lives and our jobs


And I wanna break my back
Just to see you smile
Brеak my fucking back just to see you smile
Break my back just to see you smile
Break my fucking back just to see you smile

The blacker the lungs, the rotten the liver
Proceed to explain how last
Night you delivered your mind to a realm
Of uncensored proportions
A meaningless binge with romantic distortions
And "How did you make yourself happy
When you were a kid?"
Don't come near me and my
Lover with your absent-mindedness
On the nights we had a fire
We were very lost indeed

And I stubbled all around the counter
Salvaging a fallen soldier I'd encounter
And although sleep was in my best interest
I couldn't slumber 'till I figured out
As a child what was I dependent on
To put a smile on my face?
And as a child what exactly did I do
When I knew I had time to waste?

And I wanna break my back
Just to see you smile
Brеak my fucking back just to see you smile
Break my back just to see you smile
Break my fucking back just to see you smile

And I wanna break my back
Just to see you smile
Break my fucking back just to see you smile
Break my back just to see you smile
Break my back just to see you smile

I want my friends to be upset with me when
I decide I wanna stay in for the night
I want my dad to be upset with me when
He finds out who's bed
I'm sleeping in tonight
I want a small sense of hostility between
The one's I call my friends
And even more than that
I wanna work to survive and
Every bill I have to
Pay will be the only thing that's on my mind
I wanna hate my life because I hate my job
And take all the stress on my wife
Or I want my lust for musical success to be
The reason why I'm cut out from your life
I wanna call my mom so she can
Reassure me that I'm doing nothing wrong
I wanna live my life in fear
Hoping that I'm never disappointing anyone
