Lyrics
Fifth floor, Lorimer apartment above the warehouse
The Hasidic landlord checks on the rent ???
Neon lights shining off of the bodega
It's been weeks since I got up outta bed
Pushed her farther for nothing but the silence
Sometimes it's nice to just be alone
Up and down, trip the rock around the dive
And sometimes it skins me down to the bone
Once in a lifetime
Wake the dead, end dreamer, the angel, the sinner, the saint
Once in a lifetime
Dealer's got 21, that's Brooklyn or maybe it's fate
Once in a lifetime
You put the handgun down the bag down and give it away
Once in a lifetime
Got your eyes wide open the moment that you could be saved
Blue sun rising, awake at 11:30
With a headache that's been pounding for months
Something is different, a hot indian summer
The body's waking up in the trunk
Help me
I need a voice
I need a reason
Need anything but smoke in my lungs
Flush it down
Watch it spin around to freedom
The bathroom floor is temple for some
Once in a lifetime
Wake the dead and dream of the angel, the sinner, the saint
Once in a lifetime
Dealers's got 21, that's Brooklyn or maybe it's fate
Once in a lifetime
You put the handgun down the bag down and give it away
Once in a lifetime
Got your eyes wide open the moment that you could be safe
And you're walking out
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
It's hard to believe
It's hard to believe
Once in a lifetime
Down on my knees
Down on my knees
Well, I'm down on my, yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Once in a lifetime
Wake the dead and dream of the angel, the sinner, the saint
Once in a lifetime
Dealer's got 21, that's Brooklyn or maybe it's fate
Once in a lifetime
You put the handgun down the bag down and give it away
Once in a lifetime
Got your eyes wide open the moment that you could be saved
And you're walking out
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
