Firewater

Melancholy always seemed to work for me
Wistful and uncertain are my dreams
Stardust forms into shapes that never leave
Strange and wary they all seem
I'm a ghost in the hall a haint in the room
Everywhere I go impending doom

How many spirits does it take to lift a spirit
I don't know, I don't know
'Cause I got every spirit and I'm still laying here
Crying on the floor, on the floor

So can you just leave me be
Being drenched in firewater won't save me
I'll forsake the path of filth and fleas
Can you just leave me be

Pensive stares are the only crowns I've ever gleaned
So in the dark I find the answers that I need
City lights are the only stars I ever see
How many nights until I finally can breathe

How many spirits does it take to lift a spirit
I don't know, I don't know
'Cause I got every spirit and
I'm still laying here crying on the floor
On the floor

So can you just leave me be
Being drenched in firewater won't save me
I'll forsake the path of filth and fleas
Can you just leave
Can you just leave
Can you just leave me be
