lyrics

Drop me off at detox
I watched you drive away
We spent twenty minutes saying our goodbyes
In the parking lot

I got a dose of methadone
To make me feel OK
But when it wears off then I'll know you're gone
So far away

I'll be out in seven days
Out of this drug-induced haze
But you will be on your way
To Seattle

But I hope
And I pray
That we'll be together again some day
And maybe you might wait around
Wait around for me

Things could be better
But I guess I can't complain
They've got cereal
And the nurses are mostly same
Oh, serenity

I've been playing ping-pong
And sleeping in a chair
Through the meetings
Dreaming you were somehow there
I'm delusional

I'll be out in seven days
But that's not soon enough
I'll be out in seven days
But that's not soon enough
For you
Will be gone
And that's one less reason to carry on
With two broken hearts
Can we put 'em together
Find the the missing parts?

In Seattle
