[Verse 1]
Well I'm face down
Just spent my week's worth on another round
The wise words once said from a dead man
Is "This won't last forever"
It's such a slow night
My memories fade into a shattered light
As my best mate from high school's on another high
So can this last forever?

[Pre-Chorus]
Well you know I tried, tried luck
Don't you tell me twice, love

[Chorus]
That my head is haunted
I'm gonna flaunt it
Let's open up, the last thing I recall
I should of listened to my old man
Always knew he would understand
And I tried, love

[Verse 2]
It's getting late now
I bеst get home to face a brеakdown
Philosophising me a way out
If this don't last forever
It's such a long way
To relish myself in ecstasy
I've spent a lifetime and a half
Spitting the same excuses when I already know that they mean nothing
How about something?
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tried luck
Don't you tell me twice, love

[Chorus]
That my head is haunted
I'm gonna flaunt it
Let's open up the last thing I recall
I should of listened to my old man
Always knew he would understand
And I tried, love

[Bridge]
Drifting away
So tell me right now, honey
Right now, honey, why
Drifting away
So tell me right now, honey
Right now, honey, why
I'm drifting away
So tell me right now, honey
Right now, honey, why
I'm drifting away
So tell me right now, honey
Right now, honey
[Chorus]
My head is haunted
And I'm gonna flaunt it
Let's open up the last thing I recall
Well I guess we are the lucky ones (Shout!)
Who would have thought we'd make it this far
And I tried, love
And we didn't die, love
