Woke up on the floor. [Verse 1] Six months of silence, then I'm typing out your name Two hundred miles of highway just to play a losing game You said, "Come through, I'm with friends" - so I took it as a yes Rolled up on the party in a jacket and a mess But the room read different, I could feel it at the door There's a shadow on your shoulder that I hadn't seen before Some guy playing bodyguard, planted at your side Reading me like a threat that he was hired to divide Pulled me to the hallway with a warning in his teeth "Don't hit on her tonight" - like he had a right to speak I just laughed in the dark, didn't swing, didn't stay 'Cause the thing I came to save had already drove away. [Chorus] So I checked into a room with a bottle and a ghost! Twenty dollars and a mattress for the man who lost the most! Passed out in my jacket, hit the pillow like a stone! Then the whole bed gave out and I dropped like a bone! Yeah, I woke up at an angle with my spine on the floor... Half on the frame - just like everything before! [Verse 2] Woke up to the tilt with the daylight in my eyes Back against the carpet, staring up at my own lies Mattress hanging sideways off a frame that couldn't hold Perfect little picture of a story getting old Every time I build it, man, I build it on a slant Every time it buckles and I swear to God I can't Take another morning waking up on somebody's floor Grabbed my keys off the table, didn't knock on your door Never said goodbye, never sent another word Just a coward and a checkout and a truth I never heard. [Bridge] From the water to the winter to the mattress on the floor... Every version of me left somebody wanting more. You washed me clean once, and I never washed you warm Now I'm cold in a motel in the middle of a storm. And that guy playing guard? He was guarding you from me. Maybe he was right. Maybe I'm the thing to flee. I keep breaking down foundations that I promised I would build... And I sleep at an angle in the wreckage that I filled. [Chorus] So I checked into a room with a bottle and a ghost! Twenty dollars and a mattress for the man who lost the most! Passed out in my jacket, hit the pillow like a stone! Then the whole bed gave out and I dropped like a bone! Yeah, I woke up at an angle with my spine on the floor... Half on the frame - just like everything before! [Outro] Check out's at eleven... I'm already gone. Half on the frame, and half moving on. Somebody build her something level. I could never keep it off the floor. #ALYV #CheckOut #MinusTwenty #LyricVideo #AltRap #NewMusic
