Second Lyrics by Hope D

triple j’s Hottest 100, Vol. 28

2020

[Intro]
Woo!

[Verse 1]
It's Sunday again
And it's already been a week
I still stumble when I walk
And I still stutter when I speak
Don't think I'll ever wake up
Feeling close to alive
Now I need to get to work
And I'm still way too drunk to drive

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me when I believe those lies
Only hear them 'cause it just feels so nice
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality

[Chorus]
Tell me, am I misunderstood?
I can't explain it 'cause it just feels so good
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality
Tell me when I believe those lies
Only hear them 'cause it just feels so nice
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality

[Verse 2]
It's Sunday again
Seven names are in my head
But their faces are all blurred
But there is one in my bed
And I guess this is what heartbreak
Well, often tends to do
And that's why I'm avoiding love
And that's why I'm avoiding you

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me when I believe those lies
Only hear them 'cause it just feels so nice
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality

[Chorus]
Now tell me, am I misunderstood?
I can't explain it but it just feels so good
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality
Now tell me when I believe those lies
Only hear them 'cause it just feels so nice
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality

[Bridge]
I call everyone legend instead of their name
'Cause I just keep forgetting, there's no cells left in my brain
I'm a liar, a sinner, consistent winner who cheats
And I'm an angel, I'm a demon, and all those things in between
I'm an overpowered coward who hasn't showered in weeks
And if I did a thousand times, well, I still wouldn't be clean
And I'd like to think that this, of all things, was just a phase
Thought it would last a couple hours, but it's lasted for days
Days of cracking bottles and days of lighting blunts
Hate to say this, want to shake this, 'cause it's lasted for months
Months of wasting money and months of causing tears
I can't imagine what will happen if it lasts a whole year
Years of wasting souls and years of forgetting names
Wanna stop this, I feel nauseous, now I'm fucking insane
I'm sick of feeling numb, I'm dumb and now I'm begging
All I wanted was to do it, just forget for a second
Now am I? Am I?
Now tell me, am I? Am I?

[Chorus]
Now tell me, am I misunderstood?
I can't explain it 'cause it just feels so good
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality
Now tell me when I believe those lies
Only hear them 'cause it just feels so nice
To have my head cut off a second
A second from reality, yeah
