[Verse 1]
Abusive excuses are all I have to hold
Use and reuse to explain why I'm so cold
One for headaches, one for stress
But the one for fear's the one I like best
Abusive excuses they save me every time
[Chorus 1]
The slow slide down
You never can see it
The slow slide down
You always believe it
[Verse 2]
Destructive impulses and cowardice and lies
Buzzing back to life like freeze dried flies
Flies for love and flies for s**
But the flies for fear are flies I like best
Impulsive destruction is where my talent lies
[Chorus 2]
The slow slide down
You're trying to change me
It's all my fault
But you never blame me
[Refrain](x3)
It's in everything we do
[Bridge]
One for love and one for s**
But the one for fear's the one I like best
This act is a bore, but it makes me who I am
This act is a bore, but it makes me who I am
[Chorus 3]
The slow slide down
You never can see it
My act is a bore
You always believe it
[Refrain](x7)
