Fresh Screwdriver

On the freeway, the traffic fixed in front of me
Like a still-life I don't want to survive
I can't stay in between the lines with my hands held just so
I watch the sky and a silent race as fast as you can go

I forgot there was such a thing as good people left
Can't you just save my life?

I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time
I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time

A quote from the architect that designed the slums
Said, "Beauty just don't matter - it's a function of form"
I said, "Yes, you're right, you're right. You must be right
Your truth is part of a bigger lie, sews our lives up tight"

And I forgot there was such a thing as good people left
Can't you just save my life?

I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time
I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time

Set me up for my last breath
I watch you wave your hands over a top hat, boring me to death

I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time
I got a fresh screwdriver, so what if I'm dying
I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time
I got a fresh screwdriver, so what if I'm dying
I got a fresh screwdriver right before closing time
I got a fresh screwdriver, so what if I'm dying
