Sudden Death in Carolina Lyrics

    Last night
    I swallowed liquor and a lighter
    And this morning I threw up fire
    But it's nothing new
    I've been piecing it together
    It's got something to do
    With every look thrown like a knife across a crowded room
    And every slow and quiet car ride I spent drinking in the backseat
    Every stupid melody to every stupid song
    And every stupid word that everybody's hanging on
    What difference does this difference in age make?
    I know how it ends
    She'll kill me quick
    Call 9-1-1
    I'm already dead but
    Someone should be caught and held responsible
    For this bloody mess
    Last night
    I fell asleep next to a liar
    And I woke up with a shiner
    And it's all that I remember from a night spent lying on my back with a view
    Of a stone white ceiling
    And the back of your head
    And this quiet dark bed feels like the middle of nowhere
    And we beat each other up just like we always do
    When I'm talking to myself I'd always rather be talking to you
    What difference does this difference in age make?
    I know how it ends
    She'll kill me quick
    Call 9-1-1
    I'm already dead but
    Someone should be caught and held responsible
    For this bloody mess
    Call homicide
    Take the case to court
    'Cause her lips taste like a loaded gun
    I'm her number one chalk outline on the floor
    They hung her from the bridge on Monday
    The gathering turned to a mob out on the lawn
    They dropped her body in the river
    School and work returned to normal before long
    (before long... and no one will mention any of this again)
    Call 9-1-1
    I'm already dead but
    Someone should be caught and held responsible
    For this bloody mess
    Call homicide
    Take the case to court
    Cause her lips taste like a loaded gun
    I'm her number one chalk outline on the floor
