Текст песни Can’t Swim - “​can you help me?”

Late September in 2008
Thought I met you once, you're half awake
Coincidence, the corner store
You asked me for my name, I said "what for"?

"Can you help me?"
"Can you help me?"

Desperate times in desperate need
Ink in your skin can't stop the feeling
Cocaine lines of jealousy
Cuts on your arms won't help the healing

Picking out your meds in your drawer
Playing my guitar on your floor
My diligence, your innocence
"It's just to help me sleep" is what you sworе

"Can you help me?"
"Can you help mе?"

Crushed up pills and surgery
Blood in your mouth, tar on the ceiling
Handcuffed for a bag of weed
Locked in a cell, I can't find the meaning
Blood in your mouth, tar on the ceiling
Locked in a cell, I can't find the meaning

I'd visit you through the glass
Hoping that you'd get a second chance
I got the call, they said you passed
Whatever you were chasing, you had at last
Whatever you were chasing, you had at last
(You had at last, you had at last)
Whatever you were chasing

Old girlfriends and your roommates
Tattooed the date on both their fingers
Closed casket and black roses
Dealing with death is hard when it lingers

Dealing with death is hard when it lingers
Dealing with death is hard when it lingers
