Alkaline Trio - You're Dead

What the hell is your name


And can you explain this mess


It seems you're playing a game


Where you only know how to take out the best





Cause if assholes could fly


This place would be busier than O'Hare


There's proof in the sky


It's as thick as our skulls yet it's thinner than air





I have something to say


If the chip off your shoulder should fall to your chest


Get it off right away


Cause if you don't then it won't be in peace that you rest


It's just a matter of time


That we all go away to a better place I'm told


It all sounds well and fine


But without you around I feel nothing but cold





And I now have nothing


But your heartbeat in my head


And a photograph of my traveling friend





So what the hell is your name


And can you explain this mess


It seems you're playing a game


Where you only know how to take out the best





Cause if assholes could fly


This place would be busier than O'Hare


There's proof in the sky


It's as thick as our skulls yet it's thinner than air





And I now have nothing


But your heartbeat in my head


And a photograph of my traveling friend


And I became nothing when I found out you were dead


When I found out I'd never see you again


And all the time they took talking in circles


To get them off the hook would take miracle workers


We're nowhere near prepared there's


no way of knowing


Why don't they just admit they're scared


Cause its already showing





And I now have nothing


But your heartbeat in my head


And a photograph of my traveling friend





And I now have nothing


But your heartbeat in my head


And a photograph of my traveling friend


And I became nothing when I found out you were dead


When I found out I'd never see you again
