 Yesterday I spent asleep

 Woke up in my clothes in a dirty heap

 Spent the night trying to make a deadline

 I haven't been with a woman, it feels like for years

 This shitty world sometimes produces a rose

 The scent of it lingers and then it just goes

You say you're not going to leave the truth alone

 Watching the sun go down on Lebanon
