Текст с Bandcamp’a:
“Standing on the sideline as life is passing by
Adding up to nothing and you never wonder why
Watching through the bottle wishing for a better day
Going at full throttle always seems the wrong damn way
Life is last call, don’t stumble and fall
Don’t let it all slip away
Don’t waste another night, getting lost in your pint
Wasted memories of wasted yesterdays
Memories they’re haunting the good they seem so few
The past mistakes and lessons made All faded black and blue
Promises and bottles the secrets that they keep
It’s not too late to fight before you’re buried six feet deep
Whiskey and blues and faded tattoos
Ghosts and memories, an empty bottle of booze
Whiskey and blues and faded tattoos yeah
Scars all tell the story of every time you fell
Reminders of your past they’re the glory that you sell
A never ending struggle beaten up and giving in
Bad hands you’re always dealt another reason you can’t win
Life is last call, don’t stumble and fall
Don’t let it all slip away
Don’t waste another night, getting lost in your pint
Wasted memories of wasted yesterdays
Get up off the barstool Get your boots on the ground
You’ll never reach the top at the bottom of a round
‘Cuz age is just a number not the sum of our mistakes
Always search for new tomorrows Always hope for better days
Whiskey and blues and faded tattoos
Ghosts and memories, an empty bottle of booze
Whiskey and blues and faded tattoos yeah
Life is last call
Don’t stumble and fall
Don’t let it all slip away
