Songtexte My Standard Break from Life (Live) - Alkaline Trio

I′ve got a regular problem
So my standard break from life is in order
I'm having trouble making sentences
I′m older but I don't feel any smarter

You see, I don't know what I said to you
And now you′re pissed at you know who
And I guess I deserve it
I wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time

I try to leave a good impression
But it′s hard when my obsession's in a wine glass
And when you′re only 23
It's not attractive to complain about your sore back

And I can bitch until my eyes are blue
And you′re in bed with someone new
And I guess you deserve him
Wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time

You say I'm fixable
A classic case, lack of will
I say I don′t wanna try
I'd rather stay here all night

I've got a motivation problem
So my standard break from life is getting longer
Spent over 30 hours in this bed
In two days, I guess I could′ve phoned her

But now that I′m awake I'd rather take a drink
And walk down to the lake
And beg the sky for lightning bolts
I can′t waste my time without wasting all your time

You say it's fixable
A classic case, lack of will
I say I don′t wanna try
I'd rather sit here all night
