pup - scorpion hill كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
up on scorpion hill watching life
p-ssing me by in the pale moonlight
and i sat there forever, three sheets to the wind
it’s not helping my case, the state that i’m in
but it’s not how they told you
my intentions were good
i was just bursting apart like the end of the ark
holding on to whatever i could

[verse 1]
a square of light moves its way through the empty room
across the stained yellow carpet
like a ghost of myself in the afternoon
haunting my bas-m-nt apartment
i looked into the mirror
hanging behind my door
the gl-ss was cracked and the man staring back
he don’t look like me anymore
and if the world is gonna burn
everyone should get a turn to light it up

[chorus]
down and out, i’ve been on the rocks
i’ve been having some pretty dark thoughts
i like them a lot

[verse 2]
time and time again, well i’ve tried and failed
to get my act together
and i’ll admit lately things really went off the rails
i know that you deserve better
but in the morning, as i was boarding
the commuter train to work
the boss was calling, he said, “there’s been cutbacks and
i’m sorry you’re the first”
and if i can’t support the two of us
how can i support a third?

[chorus]
down and out, i’ve been on the rocks
i’ve been having some pretty dark thoughts

[bridge]
and i’m on the brink
fallin’ deep into debt
fallin’ deep into drink
i can drown those regrets
i don’t have to think
now i’m working the night shift
asleep at the wheel
i was bursting apart like a flame from a spark
thinkin’ “jesus, this can’t be for real”

[verse 3]
my sweat-soaked mattress
corner of the room
cigarettes and matches
in the fading afternoon
and a picture of my kid, yeah, he’s smiling
it’s the first day of school

[outro]
she said, “i found the gun, it was buried beneath
piles of clothes in the room where your son sleeps
and i can’t pretend, to know how this will end”
