Add "Cough" to your playlists: https://orcd.co/cough

Cough is about the shame of recognizing your cheap fixes. Do you wish everything was better, or do you just wish you felt better about everything? Sometimes, you’re able to feel the progress you’ve made. Other times, you just wish you could start over. But, no matter what, you always want to cough. And you’re not proud of it.

Lyrics by Brian McShea & Zach Boucher

I just wanna cough
This shit that I’ve been sucking off isn’t strong enough
I think I’ve had too much
I’m tired of this fucking fog and hiding stuff from my mom
These habits I’m not so proud of
These habits I’m not so proud of

The haze, every fucking day
Makes me feel like everything is okay (when it’s not)
Makes me feel like I got something to say (but I forgot)
So I stopped smoking pot
But every single thought
That I allot to tear myself down
Makes me scared that I never
Fought hard enough to get myself out

I just wanna cough
This shit that I’ve been sucking off isn’t strong enough
I think I’ve had too much
I’m tired of this fucking fog and hiding stuff from my mom
These habits I’m not so proud of
These habits I’m not so proud of

What’s the point?
I barely feel any joy
Uninspired and unemployed
Last month I cried cleaning out my dusty old toys (where is that boy?)
On a weekday stuck in VA
As my childhood replayed
I snuck away to get wasted in this home I wasted
Can I go back to my lonely basement?

Back to the life I forgot?
Relive the time that I lost?
And try again from the top?
I’d trade it all

I just wanna cough
This shit that I’ve been sucking off isn’t strong enough
I think I’ve had too much
I’m tired of this fucking fog and hiding stuff from my mom
These habits I’m not so proud of
These habits I’m not so proud of
