Last Call
Awake in another city at five A.M.
The breath of day upon my neck
Counting the hours until I wake
To give back all these things that I take
How hard we tried to tear this world down
My duty was to futility
The unwilling hand of beauty
Which left us seeking negativity
We were seeking ruin
Out on the outskirts
Of another dead end town
Trying to find some truth
In the maze
The lines on our faces grow deeper
So step up to the gallows
And hang me out to try
One last time
What do we do to save us from ourselves?
Who can reach out to save us?
We made our bed
And let it lie
And to think all we did
Was waiting around to die
The powder hurts us but we still try
To lie to ourselves finding reasons why
We try
To find reasons why
The breath of day upon my neck
Counting the hours until I wake
To give back all these things that I take
How hard we tried to tear this world down
My duty was to futility
The unwilling hand of beauty
Which left us seeking negativity
We were seeking ruin
Out on the outskirts
Of another dead end town
Trying to find some truth
In the maze
The lines on our faces grow deeper
So step up to the gallows
And hang me out to try
One last time
What do we do to save us from ourselves?
Who can reach out to save us?
We made our bed
And let it lie
And to think all we did
Was waiting around to die
The powder hurts us but we still try
To lie to ourselves finding reasons why
We try
To find reasons why
