Alibis Lyrics[Verse 1]
From the scrapes and bruises
To the familiar abuses
I'll kick and scream
But it never changes anything
[Verse 2]
I could spill my guts out
Wearing my best little girl pout
And I almost missed it
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy
[Chorus 1]
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
[Post-Chorus 1]
And all my
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be
[Verse 3]
Most times it all comes out wrong
I don't know the words but I'll hum along
There's nothing familiar here anymore
To anyone or anything left to feel alive
[Verse 4]
And I still taste that sickness
And it makes me crazy without it at best
But I'm in the same place I used to be
But I'm trying harder not to be
[Chorus 1]
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
[Post-Chorus 1]
And all my
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be
[Bridge]
So what am I?
What am I?
So what am I?
[Chorus 2]
And all my, all my faces are alibis
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how the words go
I just started not to say no
[Post-Chorus 2]
Don't want it, don't get it
I know you won't regret it
Don't surface, don't surface
And I feel so damned worthless
[Outro]
Another day is gone
And all my faces are alibis
All my faces are alibis
And me
I'm half the man I wanted to be1
