Jason & The Scorchers - Last Time Around lyrics

LAST TIME AROUND

Well, a vial of love you used to save

but even that's distilled away

locked inside a closet made of sand.

Well, the silver anesthetized your veins

like the chilling damp December rain.

How can you look at me as if you still don't see?

The last time around,

I'm the final survivor in your heart's ghost town.

It's the last time around.

Well, I watched the storm engulf you in

like the death cries of a wounded friend

just beyond the reach of Satan's grasp.

And now I feel it in your baby's breath.

You'll never find your hero's death

to ease the pain of always being sane.

'Cause it's the last time around,

I'm the final survivor in your heart's ghost town.

It's the last time around.

And like the snows of May

will your spirit fade away,

like a spent gold mine is it gone.

Time will tell, we all will see

the Wrath of Judgement dancing free

down the one way corridor of fame.

But a question still can answer why

like a baby's first baptism cry.

Still do you bear, still do you hear?

The last time around,

I'm the final survivor in your heart's ghost town.

It's the last time around.

'Cause it's the last time around,

I'm the final survivor in your heart's ghost town.

It's the last time around.

The last time around,

I'm the final survivor in your heart's ghost town.

It's the last time around.

Last time around

last time around

last time around

last time around
