Part time bartender Full time escapist Left to spare her daughter From a life of engagement. She'll never know If her time here was wasted Before the verdict She Prayed for church basements Nobody noticed. Except the bar fly His tab stayed open She clocked out, out back before he could close it. A memorial, he was outside smokin' didn't realize he lit a candle When the cherry was glowing She'll never see it. In the paper they read it hearts bleedin' like a wound they weren't treating By breathing. at the tip of a needle wings spread like an angel Wrote her name in hebrew Left us a messege. "malakh" How much time you got How will you spend it She bet him on her life That it's less then intended If I could reinvest it I'd pay for my sins I'll be ****** If it Wouldn't take every penny I have. But I'll be glad for empty pockets When I stop losing friends I'm not sayin' her life was wasted I'm just sayin' live.
