I leave the gas on
walk the allies in the dark
sleep with candles burning
i leave the door unlocked
I'm weaving a rope and
running all the red lights
did i get your attention
cause i'm sending all the signs
that the clock is ticking
and i'll be giving my two weeks
pick your favorite shade of black
you'd best prepare a speech
say something funny
say something sweet
but don't say that you loved me
I'm still breathing
though we've been dead for a while
this sickness has no cure
we're going down for sure
already lost a grip
best abandon ship, oh
maybe i was too pale
maybe i was too fat
maybe you had better
better lick in the sack
no formal education
i swore way too much
but i swear you didn't care
cause we were in love
so as i write this chapter
and shed my last tears
its all for the better
that we end this year
let's close this chapter
say one last prayer
but don't say that you loved me
I'm still breathing
though we've been dead for a while
this sickness has no cure
we're going down for sure
already been diagnosed
so let's give up the ghost
