Poems and Closing Time

[00:14.00] I've been overdrinking
[00:15.66] 'Cause I've been overthinking
[00:17.56] 'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
[00:21.74] Chemicals and nicotine
[00:23.19] Friends ask how you've been
[00:25.27] You just learn to say you're alright
[00:29.20] Poems and closing time
[00:31.00] Oh, sweet love of mine
[00:32.91] I found it so hard to find truth
[00:36.67] Poems and closing time
[00:38.44] Oh, sweet love of mine
[00:40.37] It'll always just be me and you
[00:58.88] And those bastards get richer
[01:00.68] While the poor dig ditches
[01:02.69] To bury their dreaming in
[01:06.57] And labor done cheap
[01:08.21] At five AM
[01:09.99] Is the reason they're sleeping in
[01:13.54] Oh, men build churches
[01:15.52] So their kids find worth in
[01:17.72] Something bigger than themselves
[01:21.20] But the uncorruptible
[01:23.17] Don't exist
[01:25.03] And you can't buy your way outta Hell
[01:29.37] Closing time
[01:32.00] I'm lost again past two
[01:36.75] Closing time
[01:39.81] It'll always just be me and you
[01:51.30] Now I've been overdrinking
[01:53.34] 'Cause I've been overthinking
[01:55.05] 'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
[01:59.13] Chemicals and nicotine
[02:00.68] Friends ask me how I've been
[02:02.66] You just learn to say you're alright
[02:06.92] Poems and closing time
[02:08.28] Oh, sweet love of mine
[02:10.39] I found it so hard to find truth
[02:14.11] Poems and closing time
[02:16.10] Only true friend of mine
[02:18.01] It'll always just be me and you
[02:21.66] So don't try to pay me
[02:23.42] And don't try to play me
[02:25.11] As one of your sorry fools
[02:29.47] Poems and closing time
[02:31.40] Oh, sweet love of mine
[02:33.12] In a world that's growing so cruel
