A Place To Die

I can see the face of the ever clear
I see apparitions fly
Shadows falling in my peripheral
Turn to see them and they hide
Double vision and out of focus
Heat rising from deep within
I am dying inside from the thirst
Another drink to make things clear.

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live
Live with my demons and the terror they can give.

I can feel the pounding of the spinning earth
Voices whisper in my ear
Feels like my head may come apart
Blood is flowing from my ear
Operate with one eye open
Decisions not so clear
I can hear the call of the captain
Calming nerves and always there.

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live
Live with my demons and the terror they can give.

One shot, two, three shots, more
One more for the road
Before I hit the door
One to hide the shame
One to heal the pain
Numbing all the choices I have made.

I just need a place where I can die
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live (A place to live)
Live with my demons and the terror they can give (Terror they can give)

I just need a place where I can die
(A place to die)
A place where I can be who I see in my mind
Searching for a place where I can live
(Searching for a place)
Live with my demons and the terror they can give.
