Battle With These

Afflicted by different maladies Gagged, bound and forced down to my knees I'll drown my sorrows in the tea leaves A melancholy monster huddles in the trees Drop one, and let the others rise I'm too far gone you can see it in my eyes A wicked feeling cannot be denied Can you see the pattern in the lines? We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these All got to battle with these Emotions that come and go as they please We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these All got to battle with these And I'm stuck in the bottom so come help me Can't stop when I get on a roll Cause stumbling blocks will always take their toll Slowly sliding out of control Sometimes it's hard to just say no, I'm Slow sap, dripping down the tree Pulled up by the different maladies My conscience drags me like a horse Through the painful thoughts I would never endorse We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these All got to battle with these Emotions that come and go as they please We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these All got to battle with these And I'm stuck in the bottom so come help me Nothing will ever be the same Can't trust the players or the game A subtle symphony will slowly bring me to my knees And leave me there I'm burning down to the ground Cause what goes up must come down My fear is all around My hand always when I reach for the crown I'm just so weathered and worn But my fabric cannot be torn Rise, my passion, with the tea leaves To burn through all the different maladies We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these We've all got to battle with these Emotions that come and go as they please We've all got to battle with these All got to battle with these We've all got to battle with these And I'm stuck in the bottom so come help me
