best life, best wife

from CONSUMED by the garages

I wake up on a rock hard bed
Sweep the dreams out from in my head 
And hold her in my mind 
 
I’m running late, need to see my team
Another zombie, not the first they’ve seen
This place seems to attract my kind 
 
I get my head in
They see my problem 
That she’s all that I’ve got left
And now I’m oh so lonely
But see the nights are holy 
Cause I can pretend that she’s lying on my chest 
 
I’ve got the best life, cause I'm living with the best wife, so I’ll keep on holding on
Even if it hurts a bit, in the places that the sharks have hit, I’ll keep her as number one
 
Everyone I knew moved right along
In the twenty years that I’ve been gone 
It’s not their fault, I know 
 
She’s all that’s left in this crazy world
She’s been through shit that no one’s ever heard
A good life is what she’s owed
 
It’s messed up I know
It’s all I’ve got though
So I’ll just keep giving my best
Because I’m oh so lonely
But see the nights are holy 
Cause I can pretend that she’s lying on my chest 
 
I’ve got the best life, cause I'm living with the best wife, so I’ll keep on holding on
Even if it hurts a bit, in the places that the sharks have hit, I’ll keep her as number one

A fire is burning somewhere 
That I thought went out long ago
It’s not fucking fair
But now’s my time to go 

I can see the sun going out
I think we both know what that means
It’s fine my love, I’ll be alright 
Just know you gave me the best life
You’ve been the best wife
