When Your Number Isn't Up Lyrics - Mark Lanegan

Did you call for the night porter? 

You smell the blood running warm 

I stay close to this frozen border, so close I can hit it with a stone 

Now something crawls right up my spine 

That I always got to follow 

Turn out the lights 

Don't see me drawn and hollow 

Just blood running warm 

No one needs to tell you that 

There's no use for ya here anymore 

And where are your friends? 

They've gone away 

It's a different world, they left you to this 

To janitor 

The emptiness 

So let's get it on 

When the sun is finally going down, and you're overdue to follow 

But you're still above the ground 

What ya got comin' is hard to swallow 

Like blood running warm 

Did they call for the night porter 

And smell the blood, blood running warm 

Well I've been waitin' at this frozen border, so close you could hit it with a stone
