Hey Bartender

Written 2010 Flashing lights and sounds roll by Hear the sound of muffled sighs Sullen words cannot express Just confess, and lift it off your chest Told the priest would hear your cries If you don't feed him blatent lies Oh he's your only friend But he don't want to hear your sins He's off doing his own thing But it's far from priestly things Oh he wont look in your direction Let alone show you affection Even when he hears your plea, "Hey bartender please!" Gone are all your hopes and dreams All you ever sought to be Heard from all across the room Are many empty pleas, "Oh won't you pity me?" You can close your eyes and count to 10 Again and again But he wont come back to help his fellow men He was your only friend, but he left you all alone To wallow in your sin He failed to listen to your prayer Now your lost in dark dispair You can hide behind your cries But he'll see into your eyes Until the time you leave his bar And wobble to your car
