Drinking in the afternoon
This is what it’s driven to
Is there anything else to do
I could’ve sworn it’s three AM
It’s quiet in the room again
This is where the story ends
Verse x1
Time for me to act my age
I’m nothing if I’m not the rage
Like that would matter anyway
I just don’t think you understand
I just don’t think you understand
A story needs a scene to end
But it’s hard to say goodbye
At least we got to have this time
At least we got to have this time
Verse x1
Drinking in the afternoon
The loneliest hotel room
I hope the answer comes to you
This is not the way for me
This is not my last defeat
Try to make the ends meet
But it’s hard to say goodbye
At least we got to have this time
At least we got to have this time
And it’s hard to say goodbye
At least we got to have this time
At least we got to have this time
At least we got to have this time
