Merkules
Dark Skies
[Intro - Evil Ebenezer]
Yea
I just wish I could talk to you
You know what I mean?
Just for a second
Yea


[Verse 1 - Evil Ebenezer]
Remember when you rolled up in that Jetta?
We tore it up together
You told me to keep my head up
Man I hope these days get better
I'm running on empty I mean it
I live this shit I don't dream it
I want an ocean view with that scenic
I haven't spoke to you since Phoenix
Yea, that seems to be the norm now
We're all kings with a thorn crown
Hop the train when the horn sounds
Start chasing off storm clouds
Can't swim, need a fast boat
Think I'm down to my last smoke
I can't hide my mask broke
I'm getting high with some bad folks
Tell me when I'm off the hit list
I'm in the back washing dishes
Couple hits with a lot of misses
Just an old mop no pot to piss in
I wish we were back in the Jetta
Sunny skies in December
Just hanging on like that fender
Now its just me out on a bend
Oh, white wine with them pills
Can't bring me back to those hills
Need a hot bath I got chills
This still don't feel real
Pass the bill off the window sill
I'm spinning just like a windmill
Those meds ill, my heads filled
Still see your face when I'm dead still

[Chorus - Evil Ebenezer]
I keep following these white lines
Sippin' on this white wine
Can't get you out my mind
Wish we could turn back time
And I keep walking through these dark nights
All I see is dark skies
I don't want to close my eyes
I'll see you on the other side


[Verse 2 - Merkules]
Man it feels like it's been a whole lifetime
Now it's just me and this white wine
If you look close what you might find
Is the right sign, see the kites flying
Momma used to tell me that less is more
But I more or less feel I should set the score
I should pack my bags and just head up north
'cause there's more things now that I can't afford
Why does everything I see still remind me of you
I was so insecure I would hide it from you
I ignore all your calls when when you try to come through
Now all I really wish is that I could hug you
'cause I'm in trouble but I made this bed
Now I gotta sleep in it I should take my meds
But it's easier to fill up this drink instead
All these thoughts in my head it could break my neck
I used to want money now I'm shook that I have it
What can I say man I took it for granted
Lookin' through the pics in that book in the attic
Your name's still carved in the wood by the cabinet
It gets so lonely the nights get darker
I try much harder to fight my problems
I can't quite process the life that I wanted
I'm feelin' like I gotta pay the price, I'm a target
It's been so long I wonder what you even look like
I guess we're all just tryin' to have a good time
You were right there beside me, you stood by
No matter what you'd always be there on my good side
I don't even know what I'm supposed to do
But if you toast to me, I'll have a toast to you
I wish you understood what I'm going through
But I'll be there soon man it's overdue

[Chorus - Evil Ebenezer]
I keep following these white lines
Sippin' on this white wine
Can't get you out my mind
Wish we could turn back time
And I keep walking through these dark nights
All I see is dark skies
I don't want to close my eyes
I'll see you on the other side
