Shoulda Known / Pump The Brakes

By Dominic Jones

Shoulda known / pump the brakes

What he gives and what he takes

Heavily medicated

All bets are off and the justification is dictated

Let's go dark and see what we find

Get going on it or you will be left behind

Is this real or just a trick of the mind

Rewind to a better time

When my symptoms were not as bad

I hate it when you irritate me

Makes me want to go on a violent spree

Get to the core of the problem

Chilling quietly at my pad

Give into the concept of solemn

Indeed I always wanted to be Dad

One more chance to keep myself from slipping

Further into reality

I still can't find relief

My brain absorbs this brutality

Burn a bridge and call it good

Give me something to believe in
