The gun is loaded when the glass is full,
Down the hatch and the trigger's pulled.
Off the wagon and back onto the stool.
I know that when I stare into your eyes,
I can see all the years of lies,
Ghosts and demons you never exorcised.
All the friends that I've ever known,
Are the streetlamps I follow home,
And I'm in the crowd but I'm all alone.
Oh Lord I just can't
Tear the moon from the stars tonight,
Twist my arm like a knife tonight,
And if you wanna leave, that's all right,
Well I'll just turn these tears into wine.
His fate was written on a neon sign,
A DUI never changed his mind,
He got hooked like a fish caught on a line.
You never gave yourself a chance to shine,
Your destination's a chalk outline,
