It's Dylan, You Know The Drill Lyrics - Singles - Boys Night Out

An I.O.U tattoo strung along the finer rips and tears of your heart 

And it is there to keep you together while we're all falling apart 

My conscience drifts and sleeps in shifts 

Trading off between my open hands and swinging fists 

And this alcohol - my wrecking ball 

Keeps me talking to the angels buried in these walls 

But, contrary to counter culture 

I don't care if the killing stops 

or if suffocation claims my lungs 

We walk a nightmare line 

Wide awake and dead at the same time 

We walk a nightmare line 

Wide awake and dead at the same time 

This ringing room has been raped and ruined 

Completely torn apart by the few who think that they'll find you 

But time and fate - those things i hate - 

Both have their own ways of playing the winter's weight 

And we're both older and seven snowfalls worth of colder earth has left us reaching 

We walk a nightmare line 

Wide awake and dead at the same time 

We walk a nightmare line 

Wide awake and dead at the same time
