well, you stole a few medical needles
the same hospital hospital, neon steeple
made a makeshift tattoo on your skin
before the dust settled on everything
you took a shot, closed your eyes
double crossed the t's dotted the i's
bled through each new fine ink line
by the flicker of a black bic light
i'll wait up with you
you would do the same
if I was going through
what you're going through
I'll wait up with you
then in New Haven Connecticut
I slowly saw you lose your shit
under a blood red moon
with blood shot eyes
you were getting too gaunt
to recognize
no belt loops left you're far too thin
say you're seeing patterns in everything
just like
sterling white lines
laying side by side
like two shoes tied
to a telephone line
I'll wait up with you
you would do the same
if I was going through what you're going through
I'll wait up with you
