Candy Cane Songtext
von The Loved Ones

How′d I get back here at this?
Another sleepless night dismissed
It might take a day to get back and figure out what I missed
How'd I get back here at this?
My knuckles white, clenched into fists
I might need a day to get back and figure out what I missed

I′ve been losing sleep for days trying to claim
The little stake I have, the one my heart betrays
I'd bail out if it made me free
I'd run but I can barely breathe

How′d I get back here at this?
Another cheap attempt at bliss
It might take more than these bottles to forget about what I missed
How′d I get back here at this?
I'm feeling torn just to exist
I guess I need more time to process the feelings I once dismissed


I′ve been losing you for days playing this game
Using up again my ways to kill all this pain
The reasons propped up on this candy cane
It cures my stroke of bad luck and my heart attack of shame
I'd bail out if it made me free
I′d bail out if it made you see
I'd run but I can barely breathe

I′d rather run away
Crawl away
And now you can see
My slow decay
I can barely breathe
It's 'cause you′re still with them there
We could have a knock down, drag out, who fades, what′s been the case
It could end up in whose grave?

Hey!
What if we tried to relocate it?
Would it even change a single thing?
What if we tried to relocate it?

How'd I get back here at this?
Another sleepless night dismissed
I might need a day to get back and figure out what I missed
I′ve been using it to drown out all this


I'd rather run away
Crawl away
And now you can see
My slow decay
I can barely breathe
It′s 'cause you′re still with them there
We could have a knock down, drag out, who fades, what's been the case
