Agnes just stop and think a minute

Why don't you light that cigarette and

Calm down now stop and breathe a second

Go back to the very beginning.

Can't you see what was different then?

You were just popping percocet

Maybe just four a week at best

Maybe a smoke to clear the head.

Your head is so numb

That nervous breath you try to hide

Between the motions

That trembling tender little sigh.

And so it goes

A choking rose back

To be reborn

I want to hold you like you're mine.

You see the sad in everything a

Genius of love and loneliness and

This time you overdid the liquor

This time you pulled the fuckin' trigger.

These days you're rolling all the time

So low so you keep getting high

Where went that cheeky friend of mine?

Where went that billion dollar smile?

Guess life is long

When soaked in sadness

On borrowed time

From mr madness.

And so it goes

A choking rose back

To be reborn

I want to hold you like you're mine.

You're gone but you're on my mind

I'm lost but I don't know why.
