I’m scared to death that I’ll live through this I’ve waited patiently for you to wake up choking on last night’s dinner Been lacing your drinks with drain cleaner I wish I had you in my veins and coursing through this corpse you made And finding traces of a lonely lost mind or resuscitating all my vital signs So, wake me up before last call Recurring words heard just before the fall Every step, the hill gets steeper, window shopping was so much cheaper You’re caught and stuck in your own ways Strategic plans of being two-faced, between the lines in double-space I wish I had you in my gut to winch me out of this rut And help me out with a terrible choice A screaming heart or a silent voice Crowd shuffles to the closing time waltz, I crawl and stumble up and down the hall Lose my balance and smack my head against the wall Pour your head out and forget it all I wish I had you on my lips, I wouldn’t be alone getting lit Just a bullet point on your laundry list Fired from a pistol that broke your wrist Just one more, I know it’s after last call Ease me down, just before I fall I wish I had you in my face to jump with me and fall from grace We can become mud in the fertile soil, leaving futile blood that begins to boil Relive the dreams, nightmares and all Blasphemous tongue and broken jaw The heart that beats inside your wall The time that dies as you stall For eternities between last call And summer days that always end in fall
