When did it get so hard to listen? 
When did my ears go numb? 
Maybe if thinking followed speaking
I'd understand my negative tongue. 

Pick your poison, 
Call your burdens, 
Pick your poison, 
Ignore your purpose. 

We don't wanna live if we have to give up [bad word]  
The problem isn't you, it's just in your one another? 
Why don't we think the same when our opinions change? 
I know what I want and I want no one.

This is the same old song & dance, 
Crying out "Give me another chance". 
It's pretty hard for me to learn my lesson 
When I push the limits till I'm barely breathing. 

Pick your poison, 
Call your burdens, 
Pick your poison, 
Ignore your purpose. 
I'm not useless. 

I'm not useless, I'm just the king of excuses.
