Last night
Stopping by
Greeting me with an embracing bad breath
Five A.M.
You woke me out of a restless R.E.M.
I think it's time
To sober up and die

Every little second is precious time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlight
To make it home all right
Every little second flies
I hold on to them like pieces of paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I want to fall in love and leave tonight

Been riding in the sunset
Ignoring what follows after beauty
Fades to black
Just riding in the sunset
Now this paralyzing cold
Always come crawling back
I think it's time
To sober up and live

Every little second is precious time
And every word seems to rhyme
I follow every word like streetlight
To make it home all right
Every little second flies
I hold on to them like pieces of paradise
I follow every word like streetlights
I want to fall in love and leave tonight
