Loud for a reason The reason wasn't what was heard The traffic had died down The road congestion has moved to the bars Where a lot arrived in makeup One is standing with her back against the wall One shot, an allusion passes through her sunken eyes While he waits On some kind of tragic dose before he moves in And I don't know why this feeling caused me to leave But I do know why he's lining up Distant raise, no commitment at all I want the standard of coupling introduced to myself A key for a companion I need to move away All I do is watch I wish I could battle it or care The rest arrive in makeup They're assertive in a bar where no one cares One shot, an allusion passes through her sunken eyes While he waits On some kind of tragic dose before he moves in And I don't know why seeing this caused me to leave And I don't care how But repeating this forms my belief One shot a day One chance for penance Free will is calling me closer to the grave No one saves us We stint the appraisals
