Chorus: |
|
Hotel keys are what I'm holding. |
|
It's room number 225. |
|
Hotel keys are what I'm holding. |
|
I'm here but I'm barely alive. |
|
Had a hotel room in Tennessee. |
|
What the hell is going on below me? |
|
Voices scattered in rows |
|
Up through the floors. |
|
Silence was shattered |
|
By the slamming of the doors. |
|
Chorus |
|
Well a busted sign said "Vacancy." |
|
It all seemed like a mess to me. |
|
All I wanted was a good night's rest. |
|
I'm sick and I'm tired |
|
And I couldn't care less. |
|
--Instrumental-- |
|
It's gonna come quick that quarter til four |
|
It's ten after three |
|
And I just spilled some more. |
|
Red light numbers are set |
|
And it's gonna be sad. |
|
I won't get no sleep |
|
For a deal that's gone bad. |
|
Chorus |
|
When the headlights came, |
|
It was over fast. |
|
They were out of there |
|
By a quarter past. |
|
Yeah I know they all went down the line. |
|
Blood-shot eyes at check out time. |
|
Chorus |
|
I'm here but I'm barely alive |
