PROVENTIL

Why can′t i get a rhythm?
Am I working hard enough?
Bound by the laws i'm given
Better keep moving or i′ll never catch up

How will i find that rhythm?
Hands tied behind my back
Need another puff of my inhaler
Gotta have breath if I'm gonna yell back

I'm gonna drown it all out
I′m gonna drown it all out
I′m gonna drown it all out
I'm gonna drown it all out

Portrayed by my weak condition
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Any act is gonna have a victim
It′s gonna have loss
It's gonna have pain
Let′s count my degenerate ailments


One
Got a chronic spasm
Two
Got a fractured spine
Three
Got a case of asthma
More bad days than I've ever felt fine

Will I mend my broken bones
For a chance to break my neck
Depending on crutches to catch my balance
The faster I try to run
The slower that I get to my destination

The truth will have to come
As I wait
The weight adds on
More back pain
No words to hold back
It isn′t gonna get much better
If I can't pull my weight

Slip or fade or step away from the crowd
Had enough of grind & trials for now
Wanna fight pound for pound
Had enough of the sound
Drift away now
Find a way to tune out
Put the blade down
