In The Weeds

I been deep in the weeds for so long now
 That it's starting to look like up to me
 I got fireflies sending signals out
 But it looks like it's all up to me
 Life, she caught me slumbering
 The wake up call came much too late
 I went to dial your number friend
 But the numbers didn't add up straight
 I had nothing to show you but I had somewhere to go
 So I walked outside, on down the line
 And I lay my body down, can't get my feet back on the ground
 Walk my head around, walk my head around
 If I can stay alive, If I can stay alive, If I can stay alive
 I could be somebody tomorrow
 I'm not saying keep sharp objects away
 But I cut this shirtsleeve from my heart
 And if red is the color of life and love
 I want to wear your love like heaven, yeah
 My desire to survive is second only to my desire to be loved by you
 Let me take you
 To the waters edge,
 show you how beautiful you are in the reflection of these tears
 In the reflection of these years
 If I can stay alive, if I can stay alive, If I can stay alive
 I could be somebody tomorrow
 You say you'd love me anyway,
 and if I were the hotel maid I think you'd love me more
 But I feel like a loser,
 like a shaker not a mover, like a worn out lonely whore
 I been deep in the weeds for so long now
 Machete swing don't cut me down
 One more day and I just might
 Turn this darkness into light
 If I can stay alive, if I can stay alive, if I can stay alive
 I could be somebody tomorrow
 Him, run for
