The Wake

Debbie dates daily with a boy for every finger

She leaves with one now and leaves another left to linger

Coldly Debbie tells me it's a world of give & take

But I say Debbie, bring it closer to the wake

CHORUS

In today's society, too little anxiety falls in the right place

People hurting one another, no care for another

Can you stand your own face? Listen to me now…

People gotta stop hurting themselves, STOP, now, now, now, now bring it closer to the wake

Billy blows bubbles that are filled with marijuana

To rebel from all the troubles he was chained to by his mama

Sadly Billy tells me that his happiness is fake

But I say Billy, bring it closer to the wake

CHORUS

Jason jets his jag up to speeds that's past eleven

Jason buys a house that makes him feel like he's in heaven

Bills been paying Jason, Bills friends are Jason's take

But I just talked to Bill, Jason's further from the wake

CHORUS

Now you & I have been through much, we've both had Debbie's problem

And we've both used Bills eyes to find our troubles & try to solve them

But let's not use each other, for Jason's world was fake

Only we can work together and bring us closer to the wake
