Steady Came Late

[Verse]

I used to come apart on a schedule, about every eighteen months.

You could set a calendar by it. Ask anybody who was once

in a room with me in the back half of a year that went hard.

I'd be brilliant, then I'd be gone, then I'd be sorry, then a card,

then the whole thing again, and I called it being intense.

It was not intense. It was a man who'd quit on people

and then dress it up as honesty and walk out even prouder.
