Breathing At The Bottom

Last day of life

And I'm wondering how well the tide is creeping

Why it didn't overflow me sooner than this?

Have you ever seen a man broken, broke and used?

Broken, broke and used

We call that the blackout blues

We call that the blackout blues

The night's word speaks to me

From some place deep inside

When darkness overcomes a common man

In a place where even innocence can hide

You can keep your setting suns

I need the night and the shadows to come

Hold your hope and your pity in your hand

This time alone I'll stand

I've lost everything

Still I'm wondering

Is this the end?

Is this the end?

I'm lost in everything

Still I'm wondering

Is this the end?

Is this the end?

This is the end of our days

After tonight I cannot face another light

There is no coming back from this

There is no place I will find my rest

No place I'll find my rest

You can keep your setting suns

I need the night and the shadows to come

Hold your hope and your pity in your hand

This time alone I'll stand

Hang my head for the final time

Catch the air as I say goodbye

I've seen the bottom I keep no friends

As I get lower to my end

I've lost everything

Still I'm wondering

Is this the end?

Is this the end?

I'm lost in everything

Still I'm wondering

Is this the end?

This is the end

I've seen rock bottom and I've gone on through

Dying I've deceived death a time or two

Have you ever seen a man so broke and used

I've got the blackout blues

I've got the blackout blues

Blackout blues

Lights are fading out

Lights are fading

Lights are fading out

Rest in peace
