"Sunshine and Roses"

Runnin' from my problems
But they haunt me like they're lonely
Can't get far enough away, enough away from you
Smokin' out a window with the perfume all around you
They can't hear you and it's weird 'cause it don't feel like it used to

You told me to be patient
But I'm getting sick of it
Nothing has changed
I'm getting anxious that it never will

I'm waitin' for my sunshine and roses
Red as my bloody nose is
This isn't what I wanted to be
I'm livin' in the dark blindfolded
This ashtray full of roaches is the closest
That I've gotten to clean (hi-high, hi-high)

What if I choke on hope? Gimme a rope, just jokes
Never been one to give up easily, oh-no, not me
I can't cry about just one thing
Have to cry for everything
Shed enough tears to fill the kitchen sink while waiting for my

Sunshine and roses
Red as my bloody nose is
This isn't what I wanted to be
I'm livin' in the dark blindfolded
This ashtray full of roaches is the closest
That I've gotten to clean (hi-high, hi-high)

I'm waiting for my sunshine and roses
Red as my bloody nose is
This isn't what I wanted to be
I'm livin' in the dark blindfolded
This ashtray full of roaches is the closest
That I've gotten to clean (hi-high, hi-high)

Where's my sunshine and roses?
Where are my sunshine and roses?
Oh, you say I'm getting close
But how much longer can I go?
