I promised to forget you now
But it's rainin' and I'm callin' drunk
is drownin' your perspective out
So I ain't takin' any fault
Am I half the man I used to be?
I doubt it, forget about it, whatever
And the dial tone is all I have
the punches that I've thrown
of bein' young, drunk, and alone
Traffic lights and a transmitter radio
as my emergency phone call
Evеn the cops thought you were wrong
I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'd die for you
Drinks pourin', couldn't stop it
Turn another slow dance into a mosh pit
Tuck my head, then I heard the lock and
Told him that my first car was a Crown Vic
I was in the back of a cop car
And my face on the cold window
And it's all the same anyway
the punches that I've thrown
of bein' young, drunk, and alone
Traffic lights and a transmitter radio
as my emergency phone call
Evеn the cops thought you were wrong
I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'd die
I beg you, sir, just let me call
I'll give you my blood alcohol
I'll rot with all the burnouts in the cell
I'll change my faith, I'll praise the flag
Let's wait, I swear she'll call me back
"Son, are you a danger to yourself?"
Fuck that, sir, just let me call
I'll give you my blood alcohol
I'll rot with all the burnouts in the cell
I'll change my faith, I'll kiss the badge
Let's wait, I swear she'll call me back
"Son, why do you do this to yourself?"
And I said I ain't proud of all
the punches that I've thrown
of bein' young, drunk, and alone
Traffic lights and a transmitter radio
as my emergency phone call
Evеn the cops thought you were wrong
I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'd die for you
