lyrics

Ready, set, and throw up some more failure
Already sent my papers through the shredder
The documents have ceased to be
I'd rather just dream than actually succeed

Time for me to withdraw
It's too crazy
There's too many pitfalls
And I'm lazy
I've lost my pace, can't pick it up
I'll never get that ticket up and out of here

I guess I'll never get outta here
I guess I'm all outta luck
I guess I'll always be stuck here
Until I'm pushin', pushin' up the local daisies, baby

I'm givin' up for good, toss out the rain check
The little engine that could is now a train wreck
Say a prayer for me
Tell God drop dead with all my energy

Wherever the shit falls
It'll graze me
I got so many missed calls
The phone scares me
Each day I think I'll pick it up
But I'm not quite ready to be lifted up and out of here

I guess I'll never get outta here
I guess I'm all outta luck
Looks like I'll always be stuck here, man
Until I'm pushin' up the local daisies, baby
Pushin', pushin', pushin', pushin' up the local daisies, maybe
You
Could save me

No way
Don't say a prayer for me
'Cause God dropped dead with all my energy

Awake only in lethargy
Content to finally rest in peace
The ravens made a grave for me
I'll guess I'll never get out
