So hey man, check this out, downtown's a riot and something's spreadin through the crowd. Try channel 9, I'm pretty sure they're headed straight for this part of town. I can't be certain, but I swear I hear them just outside. There's no way that this is real, so COUNT ME IN.
So grab something sharp, find some cover, kill the lights and nail the back door shut. This isn't funny any more, oh no, THIS MEANS WAR. Don't take this the wrong way, but I'd much rather choke and die than sit alone and fall without a fight.
So call the neighbor kids with trash can lids and buckets on their heads. Cause I'm telling you, we're gonna need a little help tonight...
And there she was, glaring, through olive eyes and chalk white skin. I want you to know that I won't be holding back tonight. She stole my heart. I'll be taking hers with a lawn dart now. But look at the bright side, it's not like she had one there to start...
And something tells me, it's gonna be a long night...

Distilling my spirit 100-proof, one grain, one drop at a time Eyes glazed and half shut; sweat and tears turn to salt and lime. If out of sight is out of mind, Then I'm right where I should be. I'm running on fumes, I'm running on pride right now I think I'll run and hide
So carry on my friends, I'll make my peace, I'll make amends Carry on my friends, I'll turn my back, I'll just pretend that
Out of sight is out of mind, And I'm right where I should be. I'm running on fumes, I'm running on pride Right now I think I'll run and hide
Consider this muse; Consider this the melody of you. Consider, for the moment, That loneliness is all I have left of you

So lets drive tonight, we'll race the autumn skyline. And should I fall tonight, we'll know just what it takes to feel alive...
So please believe that I am shy in my defeat. You know, I'll say that I've been fine, but no, I'm lying through my teeth. I need a spark, I need a fire, I need confetti from the sky, I need you here, tonight, these broken ribs are biting me inside.
Well I know it's circumstance alone that we speak of, today, when tired hearts are burried in the mud and barely beating. We'll find a noble reason to follow through, we always do. We'll fake a smile and leave to lick our wounds...
September's falling hard, and we're seven states apart (and I'm through waiting for my life)...
So lets drive tonight, we'll race the autumn skyline. And should I fall tonight, we'll know just what it takes to feel alive...
