Emergency

I always tell myself to be patient
But my left hand shakes
Against your new couch
Control of the situation
Fell through my fingers

I heard her say
"You can't keep living as if you're dying"
Well, I'm dying

Now what an awkward way to spend the holiday
In such a deviant way to behave
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When the world outside is celebrating their New Year's
And their new fears

Your diction is okay 'cause is medically approved
And the night is expired
Lay me down to sleep
But one more thing can you say, "Diction?"
Well, I can admit my guilt

Emergency, oh, emergency
Let's whisper goodnight

And now what an awkward way to spend the holiday
Such a deviant way to behave
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When the world outside is celebrating their New Year's
And their new fears
