Aftertaste

Aftertaste - Gabrielle Shonk

Lyrics by：Gabrielle Shonk/Peter Shonk

Composed by：Gabrielle Shonk/Mathiew Senechal

I said I'd only have a few

Once again I'm letting myself down

Surviving off these toxic fumes

I 'cross the line until I drown I drown

Desperate for release

Not inclined to get to it consciously

Perfection that I seek impossible to reach

No matter what I choose

I'm so afraid to lose but to who

Denial as a shield

Don't want none of this **** revealed

I keep it sealed

It's gone too far now

Will I ever be the same

The aftertaste is so sour

I'm the only one to blame

The curtains have been closed for days

I can't tell if it's day or night

I'm running out of clever ways

To keep faking that I'm fine

Tuck my head under the sheets

Hoping that no one remembers me remembers

A vain attempt to hide from the mountain waiting for me outside

Relinquishing control

Won't make me weak just set me free

The fear of growing old

Never feeling at ease to let it be

It's gone too far now

Will I ever be the same

The aftertaste is so sour

I'm the only one to blame

It's gone too far now

I hope it's not too late late

I need a wholesome way out

Is it possible to tame
