about
Written sometime in 2007 or 2008. The song is about getting so inebriated that you lose control of yourself and your emotions.
lyrics
Ya think the day upon ya
But ya drink the night away
It's hard to find a state of mind
that keeps the booze astray
Well your main concern is killing ya
But ya ain't confirmed it yet
Confused now and you wonder how
it'll better you better you bet
As a choke on the smoke with a toke to the face
and your so spaced out but there's not enough space
With your perilous dreams that stream through your mind
Well ya still choose to booze, but ya refuse the signs
Well it's all just a wasted time
Ya present the tension in ya
But ya fake the aches at stake
To depend the dare, to pretend to care
Whatever your will may wake
There's an angel that sings within ya
But there's a devil that grins the gin
Just drink the liquor to think your quicker
at billowing out your sins
Just like the waves on the beach caress your skin
You try to snide the tide but it's still coming in
Unify the body and mind
as you snake your way through the grapevine
Well it's all just a waste of time
It's true
not quite like you
It's blue
not quite in tune
There's a weight hanging over me
What it is can't hardly see
There's a voice that screams inside of me
It says I gotta a new song
I got a new song, now it's not very long
But I wrote it for you
So please now, don't be blue
But ya drink the night away
It's hard to find a state of mind
that keeps the booze astray
Well your main concern is killing ya
But ya ain't confirmed it yet
Confused now and you wonder how
it'll better you better you bet
As a choke on the smoke with a toke to the face
and your so spaced out but there's not enough space
With your perilous dreams that stream through your mind
Well ya still choose to booze, but ya refuse the signs
Well it's all just a wasted time
Ya present the tension in ya
But ya fake the aches at stake
To depend the dare, to pretend to care
Whatever your will may wake
There's an angel that sings within ya
But there's a devil that grins the gin
Just drink the liquor to think your quicker
at billowing out your sins
Just like the waves on the beach caress your skin
You try to snide the tide but it's still coming in
Unify the body and mind
as you snake your way through the grapevine
Well it's all just a waste of time
It's true
not quite like you
It's blue
not quite in tune
There's a weight hanging over me
What it is can't hardly see
There's a voice that screams inside of me
It says I gotta a new song
I got a new song, now it's not very long
But I wrote it for you
So please now, don't be blue
