Crack

I'd give a twenty one gunshot salute

With a toy rifle that you bought me but it won't shoot

And all is well because there's been one too many shots

The sterile robots want to talk to me about Detox

Stop the presses, there's been an update

Delivered via 1:30 AM phone call

When an only half-informative source talks discretely

Meet me-- at the family room at the side of the Intensive Care Unit

Immediately, I'll carry a tune

The sirens so loud, can't hear my music

Keep free-- of negative thoughts, everything'll be fine

We all assume... That it would go back to the way things were

That it would go back to normal soon

Saw the moon in a way that I never seen it before

When I looked up that night into the sky wondering why

Lookin' for answers, guess I ain't ask right

I'm guessin most of yall out there know exactly what that's like

What that's like, now tell me what's that like?

It's like a whirlwind of emotions that occurs when moms and dads fight

It's like when a girl grins, an emotion of hers

That holds your arm, and grabs tight

Hurl him into the ocean, one of them cold sweat heat flash types

But extreme fluctuations and temperature changes

Have been known to crack pipes...

...crack pipes...crack pipes...

Meet me-- half way if i go that extra length just to help your strength

Meet me-- at the AA meeting, needing to take more then 12 steps

Bring me to your hiding place, so I can face your vice grip

I'll chisel every single monkey off your back with this ice pick

Come meet up with me on the sidelines when the game is over

Just to say hello, then afterwards, backstage

To let me know that you enjoyed the show

And go to grandma's house for Sunday dinner

Sit at the head of the table, take away the fatal flaw

You made the day before, I seen you bleed

Meet me-- on Christmas Eve, we can fight but make up before you leave

Make visits with the rest of those who rest in pieces on my dreams

Meet me at the fork in the road where lost souls get indecisive

Meet me at the crossroads so I can have someone to walk into the light with
