Cracked Linoleum Paradise

Cracked Linoleum Paradise

♥

I guess this is my paradise
As I lay here on this floor
I look around. I'm disgusted
It's cracked like my heart
rotted to the core

This floor is dirty
I'm shaking
I need to get back up
I lay here dazed and fallen
All i have is my vice
What can i do? I'm stuck here
In my cracked linoleum paradise

It peels a little at the edges
It's stained from all the loss
I'll rip it up from the base one day
This floor you dare not cross
What have i become?
I never meant for this to be
This tattered mess, it taunts me
Far more than you can see

This floor is dirty
I'm shaking
I need to get back up
I lay here dazed and fallen
All i have is my vice
What can i do? I'm stuck here
In my cracked linoleum paradise

I've been laying here for hours
Staring at the ceiling fan
I'm so spaced out and tripping
Does it matter to even stand?
I can lay here forever
And never feel a thing
I can forget the entire world
And to myself, I'll sing

This floor is dirty
I'm shaking
I need to get back up
I lay here dazed and fallen
All I have is my vice
What can I do? I'm stuck here
In my cracked linoleum paradise

It's a disease like no other
Not much can be done
It twists and pulls at my heart and soul
If only I could run
On my back I'm gasping
For a breath I cannot catch
I'll burn down this whole fucking place
If I can only find a match

This floor is dirty
I'm shaking
I need to get back up
I lay here dazed and fallen
All i have is my vice
What can I do? I'm stuck here
In my cracked linoleum paradise
