Sudden Death In Carolina

Sudden Death in Carolina - Brand New

Written by：Brand New

Last night I swallowed liquor and a lighter and this morning I threw up fire

But it's nothing new I've been piecing it together and it's got something to do

With every look thrown like a knife across a crowded room

Every slow and quiet car ride I spent drinking in the backseat

Every stupid melody to every stupid song

And every stupid word that everybody's hanging on

What difference does this difference in age make

I know how it ends she'll kill me quick

So call nine one one

I'm already dead but someone should be caught

And held responsible for this bloody mess

Last night I fell asleep next to a liar

And I woke up with a shiner

And it's all that I remember from a night spent lying on my back

With a view of a stone white ceiling and the back of your head

And this quiet dark and quiet bed felt like the middle of nowhere

We beat each other up just like we always do

When I'm talking to myself I'd always rather be talking to you

What difference does this difference in age make

I know how it ends she'll kill me quick

Call nine one one

I'm already dead but someone should be caught

And held responsible for this bloody mess

Call homicide take the case to court

Her lips taste like a loaded gun

And I'm her number one chalk outline on the floor

They hung her from the bridge on monday

The gathering turned into a mob out on the lawn

They dropped her body in the river

And school and work returned to normal before long

Call nine one one

I'm already dead but someone should be caught

And held responsible for this bloody mess

Call homicide take the case to court

Her lips taste like a loaded gun

And I'm her number one chalk outline on the floor
