lyrics

Sleep is for the week, this is the weekend
I know you're out, don't try to tell me that you're sleeping
Everybody's got a price and yours is that you're high
I know you're going to call before I see the sunrise

So don't try to tell me that you're done with all of this
The people at the liquor store can't see your splintered wrists
So you can buy a bottle for the train ride back to me
This city's sucked the soul from you for just a modest fee

This is not over
Until I see you better or dead

Lost my job, I lost my girl, I lost my mind
But faults are made to mark for us the passages of time
Don't try to tell me that the world is full of sin
I know by now that things must end for others to begin

So I've got a flask that we can pass when you get back
We'll sit down on your bedroom floor and cry until we laugh
And you can buy a gram or two and we can feel alright
I'm tired of the constant fear of every next fight so

This is not over
Until I see you better or dead

When in Rome you've got to fight until you're free
Every dime I ever earned I spent on misery

I know where the money is, you know just how to spend it
How many times do we have to try to end this
I think I saw you in another magazine
No, just some other girl who's eyes were kelly green

Darling call the doctor cause I need another hit
Or somebody to wrestle me into a straightjacket
Shit, guess I lost my mind again just looking at a map
This coastal country fucked you up you're never coming back

This is not over
Until I see you better or dead
