Pretty Grim

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm hungover again Fourth weeknight on the piss I'm barely scrapin' rent And there's more of my blood in the bathroom sink There's a poster of Uluru Hangin' above my bed Next to a photo of my mum And she's wearing a warm-coloured dress [Pre-Chorus] And it says, "My little girl, why are you so depressed?" And I say, "Mum, I'm not quite sure anymore" [Chorus] I've got hateful guts, and all my songs are whiny The spoon wasn't silver, just really shiny Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh [Verse 2] I turn her picture around And pour myself a glass It's only 9:00am But I guess that's where the joke of adulthood starts [Pre-Chorus] "I don't feel too well"; "Then don't line up the dust so much And quit the booze and smokes", my mother says with disgust [Chorus] So I take the picture down and say, "I'm so sorry, Mum" I'm just tired of trying to impress people I don't even love [Bridge] That I don't even love That I don't even love That I don't even love [Outro] I just want something to touch That'll make me forget enough Something to make me cry in my sleep I need something worthwhile to me
