I leave the gas on, walk the alleys 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
your favorite shade of black, you best prepare a speech
say something funny, say something sweet
but don't say that you loved me
Cause I'm still breathing
And we've been dead for a while
this sickness has no cure
we're going down for sure
already lost a grip
best abandoned ship
Maybe I was too pale, mabye I was to fat
maybe you had better, better luck in the sack
no formal education and I swore way to much
but I swear you didn't care cause we were in love
so as I write this letter and shead my last tear
its all for the better than we had this year
lets close this chapter, say one last prayer
but don't say that you loved me
Cause I'm still breathing
And we've been dead for a while
this sickness has no cure
we're going down for sure
we've been diagnosed, so lets give up the ghost
Cause I'm still breathing
And we've been dead for a while
this sickness has no cure
we're going down for sure
already lost a grip
best abandoned ship
