[Verse 1]

One more fix, just a little bit of that

Heaven I found, crawling in the sun

Sitting, waiting, calling me

To indulge in this game that'll set me free

Ahh


[Verse 2]

Another wasted night, and here I am again

Promises remain just promises, and I don't know why

A moment of weakness is a moment of clarity

I know what I want

Why fight the temptation when it's all you've got?

When it's all I've ever known

So I give in to the old ways of the past and start to suck

Once again, I drown myself, delivering from all I've gained

Lies to myself always seem to justify the mеans

I've got no time to listen to your good advicе

I'm doing just fine

Here on my own down here


[Verse 3]

I know one day this dance will bring me to my knees

It's only a matter of time before I fall again

But that's alright

It's the little things in life that always mean the most to me anyway

So what if I go with a little piece of heaven to take the edge away


[Verse 4]

Just like the living dead that walk around this place

It's not bad here in the closet, found the peace of mind I never had

Call it escape from reality, I call it looking at the world

With both eyes open wide to the truth, yeah

I wanna be found smiling when I die here

I wanna burn my eyes out on the sun

In heaven's basement, you're the one that killed me first

As another endless night goes down


[Outro]

One more fix, just a little bit

Of heaven I found, crawling in my sun

Sitting, waiting, calling me

To indulge in this game that's gonna set me free

A moment of weakness is all I got

And it's all I've ever known

Another wasted night, and here I am

Oh

Thank you very much

You guys doing alright?

I know it's a little fucking early for a punk rock show, man

(Yeah)


[Speaking: Jason Cruz]

We got, ugh, we got to play all this shit that we never played, man

I swear to god, I swear

Where's our setlist? I'll show you man it's in there somewhere I promise


[Guitar Solo]


[Speaking: Jason Cruz]

Uh it feels early today

Woh

I hope you guys didn't have to cut off work or school or anything like that to make it, man

That would suck
