Last Call

We keep the truth from ourselves
because what we refuse to see
really isn’t there.
Well baby,
tonight,
last call will be your wake up call.
So buckle up cause
here comes the head on collision.
(So come on)
“Give it to me.
Make good on all those promises,
and just let me have it.
Go on and say it,
what are you afraid of?
(Cause we both know) You’re better off
without me.
So tonight I’ll be on my
best behavior and still bring out the worse in you.”
“Why can’t you just be happy?
Life isn’t always…
(life and death)
You’re just trying to keep yourself from yourself.
And I’ve had all I can take.
(So keep this up)
Keep it so
you can write about another heartbreak.
Another excuse to feed that ego.
Whatever lies you tell yourself
to keep from feeling fake.
(But just…)
Keep calling yourself out
and pulling your own card
cause it’s just a matter of time before someone calls your bluff.
(So go on)
Go on and spin this into some tragic love affair,
(Cause we both know…)
your dramatic and dependent.
So is that what you wanted to hear?
Stitch on your shadow and keep it close
cause the only person your hiding from is yourself.
So stay trapped in that bottle and tell yourself
you’re happy with those whores.
Cause this conversation is coming to a close.
So drive yourself home drunk like you always do,
and remember this conversation isn't warranted…
Cause I never said I loved you.”
