lyrics

Last rounds of the night leaving downtown on 34,
roads are wet from the rain but tonight is crystal clear.
A call comes in, he takes it, another hour is another dollar toward the family trip.
But it's one of those nights, where you're checking your watch and it always stays the same.
Every morning in this job you pray you never see a neck break. Your head shakes because you will
never know what you are gonna know. Until you go home, slip in another photo with that family
that you barely even know.
A two boy suicide pact, one pulled the trigger the other one didn't have the guts. Standing there with
no tears left, his eyes open wide, his best friend with his face down.
Four letter words are whispering behind his back. The world keeps spinning on.
The boy in the back of the squad car keeps mumbling to himself quietly, but in my head he is talking to me.
And in our conversation he says "If I can't do it myself, at least give me some help. I know you think
you're driving me home but my blood is on your hands.
They say not everyone can do it the first time. For some it's a slow death taking decades in dead end jobs.
So tell me what's it like to live a normal life?
Is it different when you're older or do you just ignore it?
You said I would have my whole life to regret what I said."
A two boy suicide pact, one pulled the trigger the other one didn't have the guts. Standing there with
no tears left, his eyes open wide, his best friend with his face down.
Four letter words are whispering behind his back. The world keeps spinning on.
"Hey pig I think you'll figure it out someday. It will be you against everyone you've ever loved.
I don't regret a thing." (It will be you against everyone you never had the time for)
