lyrics

If some night 9 o’clock comes calling
Like a killer like a stranger on the third floor
Meet me in that spot by the all night coffee pot
And we can talk about the war between you and more more only more

What it feels like when shadows weigh down on you like prison bars
In a dusk made darker by the rain
And I will search for your silhouette
And sing a song for your life to you

For your life to you
For your life to you
This is a song for your life to you

For your life to you
For your life to you
This is a song for your life to you

Because if it’s not nine it will be some other time
And believe me when I say it will come calling
You won’t hear a thing not a word not a breath
Just a feeling in your flesh

Nobody can tell you anything about it
For it’s your life and this is a song for your life to you
And one day when you can you’ll sing it back to you
Because you’ll realize that 9 o’clock came and went
And barely meant a thing to you

Does that make me free?
If I got it for free
If I still paid full price in my
Fever dreams
Does that make me free?
If I got it for free

The knot in my stomach
Does that make me full?
The ice in my glass cannot keep me cool
Does that make me free?
If I got it for free

And most of the time
We don’t even do it for fun
But the first wink of night
Just feels like a starting gun
Does that make me free?

I’m ready to quit
But I don’t know what
Should I quit trying
Or should I quit the rush?

Well something’s gotta break
And I just hope it’s not me
Does that make me free?
Does that make me free?

And if I could’ve known
How to sing this song to another
Maybe some daughter would still have her mother
Does that make me free?

Does that make me free?
