I keep my soul on high alert
I keep it all on high alert
At a time like this
At a time like this
Mixed in the glass 'til I end up on a list
Spirits on the floor 'til they learn to coexist
They'll be missed
At a time like this, I wish
At a time like this

Call it, call it, call it what you want
Karma, karma in the current when it's calm, oh
At a time like this, it's strong (Oh)
At a time like this (Oh, oh, oh)

The old-timer told me not to bother
He thought getting old would take way longer
Scraping all the rust off of his armor
Melting in my hands like salt in water
Spoken like the fathеr of a father
I thought getting old would take way longеr
I thought getting old would make me stronger
At a time like this

Woo, M-I, M. I. A. , M-I, M-I, M. I. A (M-I, M. I. A.)
Put 'em on VHF, tell 'em send them my way
(Better send them my way)
Gold on my body, as it all went my way
(Yeah, it all went my way)
God stained my body, crashing my getaway (Yeah yeah)
I could hear the pain from the landline (Yeah, yeah)
You were too young to be the bad guy (Yeah)
You were just a child, life just happened to you (Oh)
Sleeping on the wheel when it backed into you
Uh, at a time like this
At a time like this

Mixed in the glass with the spirits from the bottle
I wanna leave a message for that person from tomorrow
And when it's all gone, no one wants to take requests
What's the point in trying at a time like
at a time like this?

Mixed in the glass 'til I end up on a list
Spirits on the floor 'til they learn to coexist
They'll be missed, why bother filling an abyss?
What's the point in dying at a time like this, like this?

Call it, call it, call it what you want, uh
But there's karma in the current when it's calm
Whatever gets me, gets me, don't get me wrong, uh
Whatever gets me prolly had me all along
Call it, call it, call it what you want
But there's karma in the current when it's calm
Whatever gets me, gets me, don't get me wrong
Whatever gets me prolly had me all along

( [?] ) At a time like this
( [?] ) At a time like this
( [?] ) At a time like this
(What's the point in dying at a time like this?)
At a time like this
I keep my soul on high alert, uh
I keep it all on high alert, uh (Woah)
I keep on watching 'til it hurts (Woah)
I keep on going 'til it works out
I keep it all on high alert (Woah)
I keep on dancing 'til it hurts (Woah)
At a time like this
At a time like this

Yeah

I was born in the wrong, yeah
With a puzzle to solve (To solve)
Where the colors dissolve (Dissolve)
(Oh)
Just keep holding your breath, yeah
When the tunnels collapse (Ah)
And the wish is intact
(Oh)
And the guilt comes in on two (Two)
And the guilt comes in (In)
When the walls cave in on you (You)
They become your skin (Skin)
At a time like this
At a time like this (Time like this)

They might as well, they went—
There goes the wind
Turn the engine!
It's a gorgeous island
