Lyrics and translation

Original

Cracked my tooth on a cough drop

Winter stuck around after it's gone

Grocery store on christmas

Parked too close to someone to get out

Foreign coins machine won't take

Cash out what we could to pay the rent

Drunken dark is broken

Sometimes it feels like it will never end

Did you think we'd make it?

Can't budge the water down the broken drain

Firing the wedding band

One day I'll kill the bitch inside my brain

Threw up in the pit at the Death Grips show

In a bottle spit dip and tell dirty jokes

You keep on feeding that Afrin addiction

Squeezing the bottle and burning from itching

When you pick up that knife you were askin' for a fight

Mouthed off to those bikers at a vacant stop light

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

Thought you'd get shipped home in a full body cast

Never could get your head out of your ass

Baptised to freedom and born in bondage

Had to bury you deep to keep the dogs from diggin'

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside

They'll meet you outside
