Three angels set the table for me tonight They know my face, they set a place, and it's for me tonight Well, I can't disappoint 'em, I guess I'll join 'em They've been waitin' on me forever And I've been down on earth and in this town And I swear there's got to be somethin' better New suit and a new tie A real nice service for me when I die New suit, cuff links and a new tie A real nice service for me when I die But that's the thing about leavin' Well, you get there, you're seldom forgiven And all your best friends are people that you've just met You can take 'em or you leave 'em Well, they're sittin' in this barroom And I guess it beats the hell out of loneliness Sweet loneliness, sweet loneliness You say you gave it, gave it all away But you've got nothin', nothin' left to trade I hear you say you gave it all away You've got nothin', nothin' left to trade We're the type, we live and learn Scatter my ashes then you smash the urn Into a broken room with 25 doors that you can't open And each time you open one, the other 24 they're explodin', explodin' That's the thing about leavin' Well, you get there, you take what you're given All your best friends are people you've just met You can take 'em or you leave 'em Well, they're sittin' in this barroom I guess that beats the hell out of loneliness sweet Loneliness sweet, loneliness sweet Alright New suit, a new tie Real nice service for me when I die

Out here on the ocean Adrift upon the sea I'm staring at the stars now Ah, what's become of me? Can't even move a muscle I can't even think The waters all around me And I just wanna drink The storm has never ceased here And all the mothers cry When the darkness is afire Just don't look it in the eye Well, I'm a red meat eater Liar and a cheater And I hit the ground running Take everything I need I'm a red meat eater Liar and a cheater Always hit the ground running Take everything I need And you can watch me go Out here on the ocean I've been set adrift The water doesn't scare me It's just the people that I miss And the darkness at the bottom Has forgotten what's on top The storm has never ceased here And it'll never stop Well, I'm a red meat eater Liar and a cheater And I shook the hand of God I met him at my dealers What to do with the killing? And the heavy and the smell? And the existential action? And the fire pits of Hell? It's the deep end of the ocean It's the darkness of our sea Where no light is reflected Is that what's to become of me? To become of me? Well, I'm a red meat eater Liar and a cheater And I shook the hand of God I met him at my dealers What's to do with the killing? The heavy and the smell? The existential action? And the fire pits of Hell? It's so nice to see you all But my time is just a sliver The devil's on fire And he's rollin' down the river He's a red meat eater Liar and a cheater And he hits the ground running Takes everything he needs It's the deep end of the ocean It is the darkness of the sea Where no light is reflected Is that what's to become of me? To become of me? To become of me? To become of me?
