Serenity Now! from Cannibals by The End Times

SERENITY NOW

A penny for your thoughts, a dollar for mine
You get what you pay for if you want my consignment
At least you could buy me another drink
You dig and you dig until you find what you ask for
You narrow your eyes like I’m some kind of asshole
I’m not as simple as you think

Yeah - it’s not the end
But he won’t let me be

The clock ticks by and the topics fly
Round after round - empties pile a mile high
Old guard - chewing on both ears
I try to leave, I try to say goodbye
Just let me close my tab so I can close out my night
Good god. I’ve had it up to here

Up to here
But that’s not the end

The static he’s spewing all turned to white noise
I decided to walk away
Back peddled his ideals he grasped for his pride but he knew that he couldn’t stay
Last call was shouted, the barkeep recounted
The balance that he was due
A last ditch effort to convince his endeavors of this calloused and unjust view

His worldview

When his night came to an end
He packed up his belligerence
And resentments
Spent
He’s got nothing left to spend
Inside and outside his head
It’s sad

But it’s not the end
