I get my whiskey from a well, except on holidays then it's on the top shelf.
|
But tonite I don't mind if I spend a little more because you are a tolerant woman and the world is at war.
|
I know you witnessed my decline.
|
You used to push back the darkness like a floodlight,
|
but tonight that is a secret like the soul of a whore that if you want to have fun you will just have to ignore.
|
Now let my troubles solve themselves.
|
I used to get involved but I'm just no help, but tonight let's pretend that we are just like we were.
|
Let me stay until the morning I will sleep on the floor.
|
And we can talk in circles, no dollar figures, just what is owed or paid.
|
And you can make predictions I know you see the future and I agree.
|
We agree tonight is not happening.
|
|
When I got dry as a desert I got mean.
|
I was as lonely and empty as a canteen.
|
With no anesthetic you are bound to be sore but tonight I and drinking all peaceful and warm.
|
And just when I got fed up with the gray sky.
|
The sun came out of nowhere like a bar fight.
|
And it knocke out the wind and it bruised me with light.
|
And I felt grateful for living just like I feel tonight.
|
I know that you feel safer in a group where you could be anyone or they could be you.
|
But tonight we'll take risks that you can afford.
|
You still have bars on your window and a hole in your door.
|
So we can talk in circles around a dirty mirror.
|
Night trickles down our throats.
|
And we could make a timeline to last our whole lives but we don't know.
|
No one knows what is further up the road.
|
Just wait and see. Just wait and see.
|
All in time. All in time.
