Lyrics 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, yea
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
