I moved my tongue inside my mouth
Vodka printed me so loud
It numbed my ears, my mouth, and feels
But I could still feel my heartbeat
Buzz, buzz
I could hear no more
Putting a foot in front of the other,
Stumbling past all the drunk lovers
Blurry eyesight,
How many fingers do you see?
I counted one, two,
But couldn't make it to three
Down the boulevard
I parked my car
I almost tripped
While getting inside
My heel had broke
I fell to the floor
The taste of love
All over my tongue
I stomped on the pedal,
Leaving everything behind
I could've gotten a medal
But didn't have enough time
How many red lights can you see?
Passing two will not kill me
I'm pretty sure they're screaming "go!"
And that I should hear them on
Two spots of light
In the distance...
Or have they arrived?
They're getting closer
I'm grasping my life
But it slips between my fingers
Where the smell of tequila lies
I cannot breathe in
I think this is it
I'm holding death between my teeth
Remembering every single sin
They say that when you die
Your life flashes right before your eyes
But I could only see your smile
Hanging desperately to mine
I'll never see again
The flawless beauty of your face
And I'll never hear again
The high-pitched laughter of my friends
They told me vodka was the answer
To every problem unsolved
But it only gave me answers
I couldn't unravel at all.
