I leave the gas on Walk the allies in the dark Sleep with candles burning I leave the door unlocked I'm weaving a rope and Running all the red lights Did I get your attention 'Cause I'm sending all the signs and The clock is ticking And I'll be giving my two weeks Pick your favorite shade of black You'd best prepare a speech Say something funny Say something sweet But don't say that you loved me 'Cause I'm still breathing But we've been dead for awhile This sickness has no cure We're goin' down for sure Already lost a grip Best abandon ship Maybe I was too pale Maybe I was too fat Maybe you wanted better, better luck in the sack No formal education I swear way too much I swear you didn't care 'Cause we were in love So as I write this letter and shed my last tear No, it's all for the better That we end this here Let's close this chapter Say one last prayer But don't say that you loved me 'Cause I'm still breathing But we've been dead for awhile This sickness has no cure We're goin' down for sure Already lost a grip Best abandon ship 'Cause I'm still breathing But we've been dead for awhile This sickness has no cure We're goin' down for sure Already lost a grip Best abandon ship I'm still breathing I'm still breathing
