damn

The year started at the back of a train

Of thought facing the elevator

In an awkward way

Everyone drunk off of their faces

Just singing our praises

Wanting in on the magic, say

Midnight on the second floor counting

While you were in the corner joking 'bout

How it would be your last

How it would be your last

When we were outside having a smoke

I heard you asking around, hey

Could you find me some coke?

Every year is just a little bit darker

Then the darker gets darker

Then it's dark as hell

By now you don't need a good reason

You climb up the highest of the trees and

You laughed yourself clean

Yeah, you laughed yourself clean

Back inside where the party had started

Eyes shut, feet quick, really feeling ecstatic

Feelings come then they go some place

Little high, big lows in any case

A good friend is a good friend, no doubt

But sometimes a good friend ain't enough to grab ya

And pull you out

Damn the work, damn the music

Damn the fun that's missing

Damn the drugs, damn the friends

Damn the phone that's ringing

Damn the night, damn the party

Damn the song that's spinning

And trying to lift us up

But it only drags us down

The year started at the back of a train

Of thought facing the elevator

In an awkward way

Made a call from the side room

"Hey Ma, can I come home soon?"

I'm lying on the floor in the bathroom

I've had it with this place

We're all going insane

I've had it with this place

Well you've been feeling lost now

Living in the background

Hanging with the rough crowd

Thinking of the times you had it all figured out

Now everyone is passed out

Blurry on the edge now

Empty as an effigy waiting to come down

I've had it with this place

We're all going insane

I've had it with this place

We've all gone insane

Damn the work, damn the music

Damn the fun that's missing

Damn the drugs, damn the friends

Damn the phone that's ringing

Damn the night, damn the party

Damn the song that's spinning

Damn the room, damn the street

Damn the scene listening

Damn the home, damn the dog

Damn the planet watching

Damn the mood, damn the people

Damn the door that's closing

Damn the time, damn the ride

Damn the drive that's missing

Damn the home, damn the dog

Damn the life that's winning
