"last words" lyrics

"last words"

Fever rising in the setting sun
Cocaine in your eyes and bullets in your gun
And blood in your nails is scratching for the face
With a noose 'round your neck and a needle in your vein

Ooh, and you say...
How did I get here and can I get back
I thought I was having fun, but no
I was just looking for the one
Always - looking for the one

Well, you don't thank fuck that you got a home
Now your friends have left you and you're on your own
And the woman in your life wasn't quite enough
So, you let her go and leave you and it broke your heart

Ooh, and you say...
How did I get here and can I get back
I thought I was having fun, but no
I was just looking for the one
Always - looking for the one

Well, your mind is empty and your heart is cold
And your last routines are getting old
Now, people seeing through your web of lies
And they're fucking the demons that war inside

Ooh, and you say...
How did I get here and can I get back
I thought I was having fun, but no
I was just looking for the one
Always - looking for the one

Careful what you wish for from the steady life
If you want too much you might lose your mind
If you only want the woman you saw on TV
Then your eyes are open but you just can't see

Ooh, and you say...
How did you get here and will you get back
I thought we were having fun, but no
We were just looking for the one
Always - looking for the one

How did I get here and can I get back
I thought I was having fun, but no
I was just looking for the one
Always - looking for you
