| I fell asleep with the lights on last night
|
| A dream helped me see my wrongs under black light
|
| I let my self esteem splash like cum on the walls
|
| And fled the scene from another sad crash site
|
| I probably shoulda gave more effort
|
| To make more records than stray dog sessions
|
| What came first the tour date or erection?
|
| One more place checked off for your collection
|
| Pats on the back, stud
|
| Rockstar cool crashed out on the mat in the bathtub
|
| Like you got harpooned
|
| Gettin' fat on the rap love, drugs, Pabst and the bad blood
|
| Sad but true, you pissed in your pants
|
| This was your chance to give to your fans
|
| A little more than the dick in your pants
|
| Bet you wish that your parents didn’t see the whole charade
|
| They watched you throw away the dough you made at shows you played
|
| You coulda been a rap star with his own parade
|
| I never meant the first black car in the motorcade
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| And they shined on all of my wrongs that I never got to better into bygones
|
| A little bit less all night and a little more effort into my songs
|
| I coulda been around when I break on through
|
| And that haunts me so I haunt you
|
| I never dreamed I would die young
|
| Lie to me and you choke my chain
|
| If I didn’t die, people wouldn’t know my name
|
| I never shoulda been so thick
|
| Or played the tough guy schtick if the pen don’t fit
|
| By the time I learned to trust my gift and be brave
|
| The beat changed on and the end closed in
|
| Such is fate now that I love my skin
|
| They dug my grave and I jumped right in
|
| This is a mistake I’m not the next Nick Drake
|
| If kids wait, I was gettin' close to my big break
|
| Fans said if I’d just make one more great tape with J. J
|
| I would have seen my first big payday
|
| But I’m a day late, and a dollar short
|
| Being away makes the fans just want it more
|
| Whether you’re a martyr or you were gone before greatness
|
| You become a connoisseurs favorite
|
| And I don’t say it to express regret
|
| For tardy payments and creditors I left with debt
|
| How can I expect to rest
|
| An artist anguished I haven’t made my best just yet
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| And they shined on all of my wrongs that I never got to better into bygones
|
| A little bit less all night and a little more effort into my songs
|
| I coulda been around when I break on through
|
| And that haunts me so I haunt you
|
| I never dreamed I would die young
|
| Lie to me and you choke my chain
|
| If I didn’t die, people wouldn’t know my name
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| And they shined on all of my wrongs that I never got to better into bygones
|
| A little bit less all night and a little more effort into my songs
|
| I coulda been around when I break on through
|
| And that haunts me so I haunt you
|
| I never dreamed I would die young
|
| Lie to me and you choke my chain
|
| If I didn’t die, people wouldn’t know my name
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| I never dreamed I would die young
|
| I fell asleep with the lights on
|
| I never dreamed I would die young |
