The Movement - Retriever lyrics
[The Movement - Retriever lyrics]
Spit out my drink on the shelf
Think to myself what is left
Is there anything else hang up my belt
How I felt doesn't matter i melt
I'm wet batter i'm sweltering hot
But, I'm not what I thought
The plot thickens then rots
Not the pick of the lot flick at my watch
Ticking them off like seconds
And then I cough
The trough of liquor down in my belly
Smelly with sauce i'm jealous with thoughts
Awkward, I tell us aloft
Baby I'm trying to be good
Maybe I'm tying my hood tighter
A fighter flicking my lighter
At petrified wood maybe I'm misunderstood
Burning and pissing in soot
Lazy but kicking my foot
Skating on thin ice and mud
Debating to weather the flood hating
No better than God wasting a litter of dogs
I bite them then spit and applaud
Writing a letter of fraud
To my mom, my sister then long gone
I'm wrong
I don't belong to this planet I'm on
God it's just so easy to
Point my finger and leave
But don't let this place get the best of me
Cause it's just
I've got one thing I need to retrieve
Don't let this place get the best of me
Now I'm in a spot I've never known
I thought I was grown
Thought I just guessed I could hold my own
So I left me alone
Started to sleep on my throne
Home is a drink and a cone
Can't even think and atone
Won't even blink at the phone
Sorry I have to be here
Couldn't just pass up the fear
Willing to give it my all to
Fall and laugh at the tears
Years just passing me by
Bye to my life and my pride why do I try
I'll just get high and stifle the fight
If I could take back what drove me mad
I wouldn't take back the bad
The greatest times that I had went with them
And even that alone is enough
Stuff the shit up inside puff then poof
It goes away like vision at night
Pardon me I'd give my right nut
To cut some of these scenes
From this bloody debut
Strut then run at my dreams
Seems my dreams are all I need
God it's just so easy to
Point my finger and leave
But don't let this place get the best of me
Cause it's just
I've got one thing I need to retrieve
Don't let this place get the best of me
Think to myself what is left
Is there anything else hang up my belt
How I felt doesn't matter i melt
I'm wet batter i'm sweltering hot
But, I'm not what I thought
The plot thickens then rots
Not the pick of the lot flick at my watch
Ticking them off like seconds
And then I cough
The trough of liquor down in my belly
Smelly with sauce i'm jealous with thoughts
Awkward, I tell us aloft
Baby I'm trying to be good
Maybe I'm tying my hood tighter
A fighter flicking my lighter
At petrified wood maybe I'm misunderstood
Burning and pissing in soot
Lazy but kicking my foot
Skating on thin ice and mud
Debating to weather the flood hating
No better than God wasting a litter of dogs
I bite them then spit and applaud
Writing a letter of fraud
To my mom, my sister then long gone
I'm wrong
I don't belong to this planet I'm on
God it's just so easy to
Point my finger and leave
But don't let this place get the best of me
Cause it's just
I've got one thing I need to retrieve
Don't let this place get the best of me

Don't let this place get the best of me
