David Bazan - Lost My Shape lyrics

You used to feel like a smoker shivering in the cold Waiting outside the bar till the opener's over But now you feel like a drinker, 20 days off the sauce Down at the liquor store trying to call your sponsor You used to feel like the forest fire burning But now you feel like a child throwing tantrums for your turn You used to sound like a prophet And everyone wanted to know How you could tell the truth without losing that soft glow But now you feel like a salesman closing another deal Or some drunk ship captain raging after the white whale You used to feel like a forest fire burning But now you feel like a child throwing tantrums and then some You used to feel like the prodigal returning But now, now you hate what you've made And you want to watch it burn
