The One Situation I Can't Talk My Way Out Of

from I Love Birds by Coyote Wall

it’s the one situation
i can’t talk my way out of
no amount of talkin' can save me now

they will lay me out
on my sorry ass
and it will be glorious
to watch me go down

and i swear he was seven foot two
not sure what i was doin' sayin' hey buddy 
i ain’t scared of you 
cause that wasn’t true

and all things considered
it coulda been worse
i could be in the back of a hearse 
or a shallow grave

but the hole that i dug for myself
was just metaphorical
so i guess it’s not horrible 
guess i got what i gave

and the consequence hits like a truck
all things considered i got pretty far on my luck
before it dried up
 
in the dark night
in the parking lot
of the bar that my friend used to own
well i told you 
i'd never be lonely 
but my god 
right now do i ever feel alone

it’s the one situation
i can’t talk my way out of
no amount of talkin' can save me now
