Deadline lyrics

D. Roeser - )

You said you`d be here at a quarter to five
I didn`t know if you were dead or alive
How long d`you think that I could sharpen my knife
I`ve got better things to do with my life

It`s almost the deadline
Don`t miss the deadline, darling
When all your bad dreams will come true
Don`t miss the deadline
It`s almost the deadline, darling
I wouldn`t want it to happen to you

Bill screamed at him, and he hung up the phone
I wonder if he ever felt more alone
He never finished his coffee that night
The (????) oh! Dave, it was a terrible sight

He missed the deadline
He passed the deadline, darling
And I believe that somehow he knew
He crossed the deadline
He passed the deadline, darling
There wasn`t a thing anybody could do

Listen my darling, now, don`t play with fire
You find a way to balance hate and desire

It`s almost the deadline
Don`t miss the deadline darling
Consequences are easily misconstrued
Don`t miss the deadline
It`s almost the deadline, darling
I couldn`t live if it happened to you
