This business ain′t for the faint of heart
Well, I fell for the bullshit
And then I started falling apartAnd by the end of the summer
I let it get the best of me
What a goddamn bummer
What a waste of my energy
So I spent a long time down in the basement
Instead of rolling with the riff-raff
'Cause I′m no better
I'm no better than that
Yeah, I spent a long time trying to make it
And when I finally faced the facts
I never felt so shitty before
I never felt so miserable
Following familiar patterns
I'm falling back into ruin
I′m getting serious douche chills
Just being in this room
I didn′t even see the humour
With the situation I was in
Knocking back down shooters
'Til I puked in the kitchen
Yeah, I spent a long time down in the basement
Instead of rolling with the riff-raff
′Cause I'm no better
I′m no better than that
I spent a long time trying to make it
And when I finally faced the facts
I never felt so shitty before
I never felt so miserable
They used to all talk down at me
And now they're biting their tongues
They used to say, "Don′t quit your day job"
Well guess what? I never had one!
I never felt so shitty before
I never felt so miserable
I spent a long time down in the basement
Instead of rolling with the riff-raff
'Cause I'm no better
I′m no better than that
Yeah, I spent a long time trying to make it
But when I finally faced the facts
I never felt so shitty before
I never felt so miserable
