Standing stiff on a cliff
And I'm not gonna leap,
Checked out the water

But it's much too deep,
No going back, no turning around,
I'll stay here and wait,
God I hope that I'm found.

My thoughts were in knots,
I couldn't get to sleep,
Went up to the attic
To see what to keep,
Threw out the useless,
Now it's bone dry,
But I still couldn't die,
Couldn't figure out why.

This place is packed,
I needed that.
A bottle cracked,
I'm glad for that.
A good night's rest?
Forget about that!
I feel alive in this dive,
So I'll drink to that!

The attic was empty,
And my eyes were shut,
Had to do something,
But I didn't know what.
The darkness was nice,
But it wasn't enough.
The clock wasn't stopping
So I had to get tough.

This place is packed,
I needed that.
A bottle cracked,
I'm glad for that.
A good night's rest?
Forget about that!
I feel alive in this dive,
So I'll drink to that!

Got up and out
And found out it was raining,
The car lived then died
But I wasn't complaining.
Hell bent for action,
Some had to be out there,
I walked then I ran,
Hoping something was somewhere.

Before too long
It didn't take long
This place came along
And I ended up here.

This place is packed,
I needed that.
A bottle cracked,
I'm glad for that.
A good night's rest?
Forget about that!
I feel alive in this dive,
So I'll drink to that!
