Checkout Time

She sits there starting at the walls again
Doesn't know how she got there again
She sits there looking at the floor again
Doesn't know why she's nowhere again

Thought this time would be different
Just like every other time was supposed to be
Thought this time would take her to that place
Instead it just laid her to waste

Now she's in between worlds
And they both are sucking her dry
That rush in her veins
It gets shorter and shorter with each shot

Can't hear them because they're not there
No one coming to save her this time
Wore out her welcome even with the ghosts
And now she's drifting away for good

Didn't have to go this way
Another one taken by love
That wasn't real that couldn't feel
She'll be stuck there until the rent's due
