Act 1: tragedy on repeat

Get get away
this sick sad silohette is here to stay
and i sit back and watch this all from outer space
we know you've got nothing to show
and even though you're nothing but a spec on earth,
you are the biggest wreck

hats off
your game of ruining lives is going well
and we would like to thank you for the drinks
hooked on, its a long shot to make it out alive

and i'm down and out
running on empty
as you crash and burn

whats this?
what's next?
i see you're headed for the best
in not the least, feeling sorry for yourself
and we both know you've got nothing to show
and even all the hotel rooms on the east coast still couldn't
save you from yourself hats off
this game is now 27 to 1
and we would like to thank you for the drinks
hooked on, its a long shot we'll make it out alive

i'm beginning to find out that there's more to this...
you've got a hold
you've really got a hold on me
and i can barely breathe
