Lyrics Lifers - The Flatliners

Lifers

So save up your dusty pennies
And pack all of the things you know you’ll lose
Remember things might get heavy
Try harder to think of an excuse
Of why your own bed is really
A knot away from tying a noose
Save it.
I’m done already
On and on and on and on
So long.
My lungs are black and full
Of useless excuses I’ve come to know
We’ve come to carve out our hole
We’re here to ensure that you’ve expired
From this wretched dust pool
And piss on the everlasting fire
Commonplace casualties, we
Breathe heavier every passing day
The stories we tell so fondly
Keep us awake!
So long.
My lungs are black and full
Of useless excuses I’ve come to know
So long.
I’ve cut the cord and pull-ull-ulled
The blanket down over the world you know
Try harder to think of something
A reason to remain standing still
A reason to throw it all away!
Try harder to think of an excuse
Try harder to think of what you do!
Try harder to think of why you wouldn’t just see it through!
Try harder, yeah!
So long.
My lungs are black and full
Of useless excuses I’ve come to know
So long.
I’ve cut the cord and pull-ull-ulled
The blanket down over the world you know
