Lyrics
Christians are drinking the blood of the Lord
Into my own cup only whiskey is poured
To drown all my demons, they insist waging war
Just to play it safe I think I'll have one more
I've tried to be thankful for all that I've got
I've tried to stay postive, these days I'm not
I can't shake the feeling I'll end up alone
an only child playing with a tin-can phone
I've grown quite dependent on family and friends
an emotional bond I both love and resent
It's said that all good things must come to an end
Yeah the day's gonna come, I'm just not quite sure when
But when it arrives I hope I feel prepared
And not confined to my bed hopeless and scared
Yeah I've gotta move on, there's not a moment to spare
Take comfort in knowing at one time they cared
I'm having trouble adjusting feeling my childhood rusting
Flaking away and leaving this base coat underneath
All this grinning and bearing has taken a toll on my teeth
I once fell in love with a girl in a dream
I leaned in to kiss her, she turned into steam
Right before she left, when she disappeared
she left me with nothing, including my fear
"Pay never mind to that voice in your head
It'll lead you to anger, think this thought instead
This world will remember you long after you're dead
A mellifluent melody stuck in our heads"
The words "I love you" poured out
Like cigarette smoke from my foolish mouth
Anxiously awaiting to see how she would respond
The following moments felt like
An eon apiece till she replied
"I love you too darling, you are my
light that brings the dawn
From this moment on, you're never alone"
