BLASTED

This time the truth is so obscene
But you don’t wanna hear it especially from me
Lifeboats out for all my sorrows
And they come back mean & rested up tomorrow
Yeah tomorrow

The sun shines bright, the sheet’s aren’t clean
And guess what when ya cut him he’ll bleed
Walk back to the scene of the crime
You’re never gonna leave it, never gonna leave it behind

It’s simple now not complicated
Lips pressed against what you once hated

Excuse me while I nurse my head
So hung over , half past dead
You’d think by now, by now I’d know better
Forecast calls for more bad weather
And you’re blasted, blasted, you’re blasted, blasted again

You babble on into your glass
It’s the one that empties out so fast
One more danger situation
Ignoring all the damage you’re not facing

They ring the bell when moonlight calls
Ya see boredom is the constant cause
Let the air out of me slow
Until I hit the bar and belly up to the freak show
Yeah the freak show

It’s simple now not complicated
Lips pressed against what you once hated

Excuse me while I nurse my head
So hung over , half past dead
You’d think by now, by now I’d know better
Forecast calls for more bad weather
And you’re blasted, blasted, you’re blasted, blasted again

You’d think by now we’d all know better
But we’re blasted, blasted, blasted, blasted again
