Silverstein
Texas Mickey (Demo Version)
[Verse 1]
Single file you fall into
Another empty bottle
Growing larger, trapped inside
And now you cannot swallow
All your pride
You’ll fall asleep alone tonight
With one day less until you die
Until you die!

[Verse 2]
Silver rings piercing the skin
We know you’re keeping secrets
Horizontal memories
Too many just to regret
Deep inside
You’ll fall asleep with them tonight
Penetrating in your mind
And not just tonight

[Chorus]
One more time
You’ll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover that
We’re wasting so much time
(Wasting so much time)
[Verse 3]
Heavy hits break brittle bones
He's bleeding on a sidewalk
Your clenched fist won't let it go
And now you're [?]
All your pride
You'll fall asleep in fear tonight
His face in your mind
You rolled back his eyes

[Chorus]
One more time
You’ll confirm all our suspicions
While you close your eyes and lie
You and I
Will continue to discover that
We’re wasting so much time
(Wasting so much time)

[Bridge: Shane Told & Anthony Raneri]
Looking back
All the stupid drama that painted my world black
Holding hands
Was the gateway drug that led to the mess I’m in
I won’t give up
But I won’t lie down as you take away my friends
I know I’ve lost your heart, I might never get it back
(Don’t try to change me now, whoa)
If you could peer into my past you’d see just how much love I’ve lacked
(Don’t start to judge me now, whoa)
There’s been a hundred lows (hundred lows)
But there has been a million highs (million highs)
And now we’re wasting so much time
