It's been a while since I last lost my head
Days in the sun I
found in sobriety
Toggled it up and down in my brain
Nothing like the
monsters I grew up with
I grew up with
I'm signing it up and just slipping out
from the pirate ship that I thought was mine
So I buried a hatchet and one eye patch
Now it all just seems like they lost me forever
Give me a sign of falling water
So I can be facing the
wind one last time
Give me the light of a lightning flicker
Then I will be dancing with
demons once more
I'm the one who wants to burn out
I'm the one who
needs to find out
I'm the one who craves the last match
Bitter sister asked me
“Mister, why do you think it's
so unbearable?”
Barely answered in a whisper
“I don't know, it
only gets emptier”
“Gets emptier”
I'm giving it up and just slipping out
from the pirate ship that I thought was mine
All the upshots of my peculiar mind
Now it all just seems like they lost me forever
Give me a sign of falling water
So I can be facing the
wind one last time
Give me the light of a lightning flicker
Then I will be dancing with
demons once more
I'm the one who wants to burn out
I'm the one who
needs to find out
I'm the one who craves the last match
Get back, get back down now
I'm still
all in one piece
Get back, get back down now
Things get
tough from here on
Every joy I had beside you
Every path I walked beside you
Every dream I dreamed beside you
It all just seems like they
lost me forever
Give me a sign of falling water
So I can be facing the
wind one last time
Give me the light of a lightning flicker
Then I will be dancing with
demons once more
I'm the one who wants to burn out
I'm the one who
needs to find out
I'm the one who craves the last match
