lyrics

Well, I guess it's over
The end is near
I wish you'd wrap your arms around me & protect me from this year
'Cause all I see are shadows from this room cast on this vacant room
And all I feel are the walls closing in

And the lights they keep on flickering above my head
I go for the book but grab the bottle instead
You made a way for Moses
Make a way for me
In spite of transgressions
I lack the faith to believe

So boys keep strumming those guitars
We haven't made it very far
And there's warning sign up ahead
Saying, "Act before you're dead."
And I can't go on living this way if you're gone
And another weekend's wasted, wasted saying that you're wrong

And the lights they keep on flickering above my head
I go for the book but grab the bottle instead
And the lights they keep on flickering above my head
I go for the book but grab the bottle instead
You made a way for Moses
Make a way for me
In spite of transgressions
I lack the faith to believe
