Mongoose Theatre - Wasted

Someone call the police
I've got a one track mind and a finger on the trigger
And on my wrist is a nice piece
I've got a few too many to know
Reputations a beast
He's lived months by the river and he's selling his lease
And the bullets catch in my teeth
I like the sound of them hitting the ground
And Im right Im not wrong
When I say that it's gone too far
And I've got goosebumps on my arms
I'm scared of nothing slowing down
And I wonder sometimes
If I'm spending my time on a life I don't even like
Oh I try to clean it up but it never feels right
All is up to me
When I look in the mirror do I see what I want to see?
I don't know if I'm right, but Im never wrong
When I say that it's gone too far
Man I'm gonna have to exit this car
Cause no way it's slowing down
And I wonder sometimes
If I'm spending my time on a life I don't even like
Oh I try to clean it up but it never feels right
And I wonder sometimes
If I'm spending my time on a terribly wrong lost cause
And I lie when I say that I'm doing just fine
Of all the things, the things I've done
All the towns and things we've burned
See the sirens, hit the ground
I'm out, I'm out.
Turn your head and look around
A silent smell is all I've found
And all the seasons all the time
What's mine? What am I?
Turn your head and go to sleep
Look for him and look for me
I hid the bag under the bed
I'm better off dead
Hole in my heart and now my chest
Im ending up like all the rest
I wonder where I'm going to go
Soon enough I'll know
It wasn't worth it her or me
I should have loved my family
I hear the clock tick my name
This is it, this is game.
All other sound it turns to dust
Dreams we had had been a bust
They want to talk to me instead
I'm already dead
Sirens blare, I'm on the ground
Flashing all the things I've found
This stupid life, stupid zone
Won't someone take me home
