someone call an ambulance cause something's not right
it's all going wrong tonight
in between the bottom of this bottle and you
i think i'm running into rock bottom

this time i'm in over my head
from counting times, times that i've said
"this time i'm in over my head
from counting times, times that i've said ... "

it took time to fashion this noose from fine threads of self abuse
but it fits your neck perfectly
securely
your heels hit heavy on the hardwood
not that it did any good
my love, you've been a constant headache for me
if it came down to this act or one more near heart attack
you wouldn't have a hope in hell, my darling
it all comes down to this act
don't stop the heartbeat counting
i know that i'm responsible for this
and i'll miss you
maybe, in time, i'll find out what it is that i'm supposed to do
i know that i'm responsible for this
and i'll miss you
don't stop the heartbeat counting

i've made a million messes and i'll make a millon more
trust me, baby ... maybe i'm not the man you're searching for
someone call an ambulance
