DEATHBED CONFESSION

(album: Welcome To The West Coast III - 2021)

Driving 125 in the car and I crashed it
I didn't see the turn then I braked and I panicked
Reaching for a lifeline but I couldn't grasp it
Still looking in the rear view, I can't get past it

Woke up in broken glass and plastic
Sirens wail, they're shutting down traffic
Looked down, blood leaking out of my jacket
Looked for an answer and god didn't have it
Damnit

Sped through life
Running red again
Through every night
As the last light

How come everything that I touch turns tragic?
Pleading with the nurse for morphine lemme have it
Asking if I've had visitors but I haven't
Cause nothing I ever loved ever lasted

And I can feel my heart crashing
Hospital bed now it's feeling like a casket
Looked down blood soaking through the mattress
Looked for an answer and god didn't have it
Damnit

Sped through life
Running red again
Through every night
As the last light dims

Sped through life
Running red again
Through every night
As the last light
As the last light dims

Reality comes crashing in
Deathbed confession as the last light dims

If I die young
If I die young
If I die young

I don't need your forgiveness
And depression is a sickness
I know cause I've lived it

If I die young

Let me bury myself
One foot in the grave
And I still can't ask for help

If I die young
