Lonely Karaoke Bar

Music and Lyrics by: Josh DeL Performed by: Phoenix Splash

Never mind a waking pain to be

Never mind the fact I’m still lonely

Never mind that you’d still want me dead

..because I’m already dead.

At least that’s what they said.

I can feel it in my head.

I’m make-believe.

And this is what you want.

And this is what you see.

My head to my knees saying “forgive me”.

But you’re not around to watch me bleed.

No one’s around to watch me sin(k)(g)….

all my dreams, to watch me bleed. Scuttlebutt…

I’ll sin(k)(g) all your dreams. I will bleed life from me…yeah….

I’ve seen better days, but they were so long ago.

Now my memories are mixed re-stitched, devoured by decay.

I don’t know my name, my face is mudded with other names…

And I don’t care to breathe anymore because I’m already dead.

At least that’s what they said.

I can feel it in my head.

If I’m make believe, then watch me sin(k)(g).

Sit with me, drink with me, cheer for me.

Hear me sing. Sin(k)(g) with me to better days.

I want to be make-believe. I want to hear you scream my real name!

There’s never silence in these halls, even if no one hears my falls.

If I can get someone out there to hear my broken bird of a voice

Raise your glass and smile bright until your glass is empty.

Make me live this shattered dream to never wake up.

Cheer for me. Hear me sin(k)(g). Sin(k)(g) with me to better days.

I want to be make-believe. I want to hear you scream my real name.
