If my senses fail, stay with me 'til they go
|
'cause I don't want to be alone.
|
Greetings in Braille, they'll describe everything,
|
colors aren't everything.
|
And if you see me down at the liquor store,
|
please don't tell my dad.
|
And if you see my dad down at the liquor store,
|
don't tell me anything at all.
|
And the people you brought
|
are just drainpipes bringing trash to the ground.
|
And the memories are just picture cards,
|
one night stands and breakdowns.
|
And you were cold, tired and old as you'd ever looked that night.
|
And we were warned, yeah.
|
We were warned not to stay out too late.
|
But some things were worth getting in trouble for.
|
So now that you finally failed
|
just like you said you would, down to the last detail.
|
Well, if living's such hell, here's to your dying days.
|
You won't have to be afraid.
|
And the heroes you met were just fiction,
|
yeah, with higher expectations.
|
And your friends grew up faster than you got successful,
|
told you to keep it up. Good comes to those who work.
|
And the stories they told you were true, babe.
|
Your mom really went crazy.
|
But that doesn't have to be you.
|
No.
|
And I miss Tara and Melissa, Allen and John.
|
And you'll never have friends like you did when you were young.
|
But our bodies were pulled away and swept out to the sea
|
and I'd call and say hi if I thought you'd remember me.
|
cause some things are worth leaving old memories for.
|
If my senses fail, stay with me 'til they go
|
'cause I don't want to be alone.
|
Greetings in Braille, should describe everything
|
'cause you can't see anything from here.
|
From here, you can't see nothing at all.
