You’ll Never Make it to Kal Ripken Lyrics by Debt.

demo.

2018

[Verse 1]
I started my college experience
With the idea that I was going to do everything
Everything for myself and nothing less
I thought merit was gold
But that still doesn't explain why I had panic attacks in my shower
Late second semester feeling sorry for myself
Because I couldn't stand up to get clean
That doesn't explain the panic in my fathers face
When he saw his pile of a son
Sprawled in anguish on the bathroom tile
That doesn't explain the weeks I had to spend
Shower-less, in bed, torn open and bruised, alone
And as I sit in the living room of my childhood home the walls scream out a nine-week chant
Failure
[Chorus]
Flowers bloom in my lungs
Shivering sharp scarce breath
Shallow chest
Flowers bloom in my lungs
Shivering sharp scarce breath
Shallow chest
White knuckled and tasting death
[Verse 2]
The last people to stay in this room died in hospital beds like the one that I'm in
I remember faces, I remember places
I remember gnarled smiles, curled fingers pointing
The smell of sweat and copper hung thick in the air
[Outro]
And maybe, maybe I'll die in August
They don't call 'em dog days for nothing
