I Am An Island Lyrics

Mostly, I sleep it off

It's easier in the morning

To shrug off the evening's

Drunken, pathetic pleas

Because the night's tragic rambling

Is the next day's apology

So if you can sit tight until the sun hits the blinds

We can settle everything



Turning on a dime

I just can't trust my instincts

One day my heart beats with passion

The next it waxes black

If I seem a little callous

I assure you it's just a scratch

So if you can hold on until the mood swings are gone

Then we might just have a chance



Baby, I quit

I just can't fake it anymore

I'm a cold, jaded, selfish, abusive, dysfunctional fuck up

I'm needing to be rescued

I'm stranded on myself

And I can't escape from this island I've made

I'm afraid I never will
