Constant Sorrow Lyrics by Driveways

Skeptic

2021

[Verse 1]
You called me from the car last night when you drove back
I fell apart inside but you know that
Not every star shines bright in the cold black sky
(cold black sky)
I've felt my lights dim slow as the years past
Your voice is radiant I’m laden with the fear that
When our conversation ends I'm vacant as the clear black sky
(clear black sky)

[PreChorus]
I swear my head will be the death of me

[Chorus]
I hate the person that I was
I hope that I'm someone different
Insecurities rise up
They tell me I’m unrealistic
I live with my eyes shut
That's something I've come to grips with now
(That's something I've come to grips with now)
I still hear the words that you told me
The cause of my constant sorrow
I'm fading out slowly
I'm here but I'm gone tomorrow
The words that I wrote seem
Like bleak predictions if I don’t fix this now
(Like bleak predictions if I don’t fix this now)
I'll swear I’ll try to fix it

[Verse 2]
I picked up my guitar last night
I played Adam's Song
I thought that I knew the riff on the bridge but I still had it wrong
I'm lost in my head but nothing you said has me kept me up at night for so long
(up at night for so long)
I drown out these headaches every night
So everything is fine
Not sure if that's considered progress or I’m just covering my eyes
But I know
You turned me into skeptic
Once I'm recovered and rested
I won't waste the life that I'm left with
(I won't waste the life that I'm left with)

[PreChorus 2]
I swear my head won't be the death of me

[Chorus]
I hate the person that I was
I hope that I'm someone different
Insecurities rise up
They tell me I'm unrealistic
I live with my eyes shut
That's something I've come to grips with now
(That's something I've come to grips with now)
I still hear the words that you told me
The cause of my constant sorrow
I'm fading out slowly
I'm here but I'm gone tomorrow
The words that I wrote seem
Like bleak predictions if I don't fix this now
(Like bleak predictions if I don't fix this now)
I'll swear I'll try to fix it
(I'll swear I'll try to fix it)
