The Death of Me

Making friends with my biggest fears

Cutting my patience down to the wire

The company of a fuzzy mind

And the relentless tick-tick of the timepiece

What took you so long?

I've waited for a lifetime, oh no no

And you're so out of reach

And I suspect if you don't really love me

It's the death of me

Soldiering through the hours until

You can engage me, re-navigate me

I'm getting down to the final pull

Maybe my courage is colored in whiskey

What took you so long?

I've waited for a lifetime, oh no no

And you're so out of reach

And I suspect if you don't really love me

It's the death of me

I can't anticipate the outcome

I can't accentuate the meaning of it all

But I can understand the need to figure out

If I'm meant to be here or somewhere else

I can't anticipate the outcome

I can't accentuate the meaning of it all

But I can understand the need to figure out

If I'm meant to be here or somewhere else

I dream of being a hooligan

Fighting for answers, taking my chances

The poetry of a one-two punch

Maybe the bruises are making me handsome

What took you so long?

I've waited for a lifetime, oh no no

No no no no no

And you're so out of reach

And I suspect if you don't really love me

It's the death of me

And if I'm going to hell

I surely won't leave thirsty, oh no no

No no no no no

And I'm staring down my glass

And I suspect if you don't really love me

It's the death of me
