The Riverboat Gamblers - A Choppy Yet Sincere Apology Lyrics

You wouldn't know me depression kicks in
When panic's attacking and I miss medicine
When my neck can't hold up my head
And I just can't get out of bed
When you see me (see me) uncomfortably
Chain smoking, trying to force up a smile
Then I'm slippin' (slippin', slippin') again

And I don't wanna drag no one down with my problem
That's in my head
I'll probably snap out but I just don't know when

Apologies from me
This is nothing that I want you to see
Trying to drown out that ringing voice
Mike, give it up, give it up
Like a pick in a hollow body
Give it up, give it up, give it up down
Into the sea, tentacles got me by the neck
And they're pulling me down

I try to keep in check
Stay on top, teeter tot won't balance I guess
Every time I get one under control
The rest start rising and then
I stay shut up in my home
Agoraphobic and alone
'Til with bit lip, fuck it, I gotta try
Hands clenching, sweating
Don't want no one to see in my mind

It's not a pretty sight
The right half don't work and the screws aren't tight

Apologies from me
This is nothing that I want you to see
Trying to drown out that ringing voice
Mike, give it up, give it up
Like a pick in a hollow body
Give it up, give it up, give it up down
Into the sea, tentacles got me by the neck
And they're pulling me down

Solo

Apologies from me
This is nothing that I want you to see
Trying to drown out that ringing voice
Mike, give it up, give it up
Like a pick in a hollow body
Give it up, give it up, give it up down
Into the sea, tentacles got me by the neck
And they're pulling me down
