Paroles de And Then You're Dead

At 2:15, the moon glistening
On the rocks as we stand there
And with cold, clenched fists I say, “This is happiness.”
Run fingers through her hair

When you're just 21 all the fun's just begun
The end's nowhere in sight
As I turned to the left, misplaced my step
Crashed down into the afterlife

Just reach me there
Just leave me higher

4:25 and I'm still alive
Sweating in my bed
A sigh of relief feeling cold, wet sheets
Guess the milk went to my head

Shuffle along; it'll soon be dawn
Guess I'll just watch some news
They say, “At 2:15, kid fell in the ravine”
No, God—it can't be true

Just reach me there
Just lead me higher
And then you're dead
