Lyrics
Speech is beyond me
I'm a zombie
I stagger and sway
I know you're thinking
I've been drinking
But that's not the case
If I had a dollar
For each time I
Didn't make sense today
I'd buy an island
And start yoga
And doze half the day
Hanging in there
But I'm fading fast
Dead on my feet
And can't wait to crash
I am empty
I'm totally smashed
Barely awake
And I'm fading fast
I was just dreaming
I was sleeping
For ten nights and ten days
But then I remembered
I am working
From here to my grave
Coffee and cola
Are my lifelines
They keep me alive
Sprinkled with sugar
What a mess though
I'm out of my mind
Hanging in there
But I'm fading fast
Dead on my feet
And can't wait to crash
I am empty
I'm totally smashed
Barely awake
And I'm fading fast
It will pay off one day
When I'll make my getaway
My eyes won't open
They are hoping
It's not time to wake
I'd started scheming
I was dreaming
Of my great escape
Hanging in there
But I'm fading fast
Dead on my feet
And can't wait to crash
I am empty
I'm totally smashed
Barely awake
And I'm fading fast
Won't last the day
Barely awake
And I'm fading fast
Won't last the day
Barely awake
And I'm fading fast
