SHOT IN THE DARK
by R.D. Snow (c. 2010)
Feet struggle the floor
Hands reach out for relief
Where is the light?
No clothes and no beliefs
Just a warm towel to blanket the night
It's taking its toll living like this
I used to say I'd see the world
Now all I see is TV dinners
It's like I'm part of the show
I'm one of the sinners
And I betray the girl
Third floor city loft
Christmas lights still around the bar
Down goes a shot
AC is blowing hard
Seems such a waste and-
Damn I miss her a lot
shot
shot
It's takin' it's toll livin' like this
I used to see I'd say the world!
Now all I see is TV dinners
And I'm part of the show
Yeah I'm one of the sinners
And I betray the girl
Hair covers her face
Lips tremble for a touch
So far so good and I suppose
A wrong name and a bad excuse
As her smile fades
Now I think she knows
God I know...
It's taking its toll living like this
I used to say I'd see the world
Now all I see is TV dinners
And I'm part of the show
Yeah I'm one of the sinners
And I betray the girl
It's taking its toll living like this
I used to say I'd see the world
Then I betrayed the girl
It's taking its toll living like this
I used to say I'd see the world
Now all I see is TV dinners
And I'm part of the show
Yeah I'm one of the sinners
And I betray...
Yeah I betrayed...
And I betray...
Feet struggle the floor
Hands reach out for relief
