Childproof

Childproof to the letter
You know the truth, you know better
The girl on the pavement, she's spinning
Don't be long, come and get herI need a drink, so just forget her
Time just slips through my fingers
Hold onto life, hold on despite this
I've seen your eyes shine
Just get through the night this timeResolve is weak, I abuse it
You turn your cheek, then I'll lose it
Life just slips through my fingers
I blame him and I hurt himTurn the screw, rub the dirt in
There's dirt under my fingers
I wanted it and I can't get
It was heaven sent so I spent itThe sky just slipped through my fingers
One more round for the lady
As I hit the ground, whisper maybe
I will get on my feet againNot open to your suggestions
I'll change the locks, won't answer questions
I will get on my feet again
