Lyrics Thanks For Playing - Sapita Music

Jack's heart is cold
Try to bundle up
He saw neon signs
Hugging plastic cups
There's two dollar drinks
Lloyd topped him off
They just called the cab
Might be out of luck
Wendy packed her bags
Brought the Tito's too
News flash
He never really thought this through
Two rooms at Grant Street
With different views
Guess I'll just leave like I always do
Yeah I guess

I'm chilling in the basement all alone
Projector screen, Shining
Danny, where's the rum?
The killing spree is over
And the thrill is gone
No one can find me now
I'll be dead by dawn

What was I thinking? (You played yourself)
When all your thoughts were on the line?
And now I'm wasting all my time
Rush through the bar a baker's dozen past quarter to three
Let down my guard to ask you if you still care about me

Was on your side
But now I'm Jack Torrence
We're both the same
You just change the name
Trade Z for J
Turn H for K
And I pray you know that I lost my way
And I hate to see that look on your face
I know it now
I'm all work no play
One day that handle' be A. and K.
Hope you can aim
Cause I'm still to blame and I know

And he's that Stanley Kubrick
When it comes to music
You can't see a thing
Like Stephen King
Too many shots
Too many scenes
Won't write the track if it doesn't mean
Face blood red
Always upset
Said "Thanks for playing."
Who's up next?
Too complex
Perfectionist
Sent one text
For a gut check
And I'll stay cold as ice
As I drown in mics
Delete this song
And rewrite it twice
Stuck at the bar
My entire life
Slave to the stream
Like an alewife
Still think about it
Most every night
Time spent away
Will cut like a knife
But it's time to go
And get on with life
Leave this alone
Yeah, it's only right
Still I can't

What was I thinking? (You played yourself)
When all your thoughts were on the line?
And now I'm wasting all my time
Rush through the bar a baker's dozen past quarter to three
Let down my guard to ask you if you still care about me

Was on your side
But now I'm Jack Torrence
We're both the same
You just change the name
Trade Z for J
Turn H for K
And I pray you know that I lost my way
And I hate to see that look on your face
I know it now
I'm all work no play
One day that handle' be A. and K.
Hope you can aim
Cause I'm still to blame and I know
