A song I dug up from a while ago...

back when I was emo. It has its appropriate moments even now, though.

I wish I could quit.

"It Never Gets Easier"
Straylight Run

Taking up my time again,
The one thing I can't stand.
The coffee and the conversation never ends when
All I really need to find
Is one short clever line
To pinpoint my disgust it's always just too much or not enough,
And I'm overwhelmed.

So I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me,
But it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier,
No, no, no.

Sing it to myself again.
I can't hear a word you said.
The syllables, the sounds, just aren't sentences, and
All I really want to do,
Is tear straight into you -
Explode, unload a hail of insults, 'til you finally get it.
I'm sick to death,

But I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me,
But it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier,
Oh no, no.

A strong distaste for confrontation
Leaves no room for self expression.
Such a strain to remain so docile.
'Though don't you know it all takes its toll...

But I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me,
But it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier,
Oh, it never gets easier,
Yeah, it never gets easier,
Well, it never gets easier...
