SOTD - Alkaline Trio: Continental

This song gives me chills.

I've got a dying urge to feel the way you do
Too close for comfort
Bed and breakfast in a spoon
The shortest breath of your young life
A long walk home on friday night
You made one last stop at the store

So close to perfect
Swear to hell
Thought it was you
This bouncing baby boy's now turning baby blue
I've got your pictures on my walls
I've got a long list of calls I must make

To your existing family

You had nine lives and one by one you chewed them up

Your final coffin nail's been driven far too much

This won't take long, you said I'm not going far

...Go wait in the car
...Go wait in the car

I often wonder what it feels like to be you
A mess like this stuck on your hands with krazy glue
Ran outta time
No kiss goodbye
Wish I could learn to let this sleeping dog die
...Without lying to myself

You had nine lives and one by one you chewed them up
Your final coffin nail's been driven far too much
This won't take long, you said I'm not going far

...Go wait in the car
...Go wait in the car

You had nine lives and one by one you chewed them up
Your final coffin nail's been driven far too much
This won't take long, you said I'm not going far

...Go wait in the car
...Go wait in the car

[Vinny]

I've never really liked Alkaline Trio. Well, I've never hated them either. Although that song does sound kinda eerie.

Eerie? Uh, it's about suicide and the pain that people dealing with friends/family who take their own lives... more like it almost made me cry when they played it live.
