Kudzu Wish At The End Of The Tunnel Lyrics

telephones ring and people don't answer them sometimes
and then sometimes people do answer the phones and on the
other end are people they don't want to talk to and so
the people who answer the phones get sad however, very
often the people on the other end of the phone are people
whom the people who answer the phones want to talk to and
this is where our story begins one drunk, one payphone
two rings and she answers hello? it's you? i haven't
heard from you in years she'll hang up he thinks she'll
hang up he fears you're drunk aren't you? you've had too
many beers oh just one just one well...two where are you?
she asks i'll come pick you up oh i don't know, some
diner it's cool i've got my truck she hung up, told him
to wait it's just her luck after all these years why'd he
have to call now? she's married, this sucks here you are she says i've come to pick you up she takes one good look
one look...two looks she can read him just like he is a
book you're pale, she says what's wrong, he shook/he
shudders, like death itself is how he looked i'm
dead...i'm dead...too dead you're silly you're alive,
you're here with me you don't understand, his face
streaked with tears why can't you see? for as long as i
can remember i've been as dead as can be i didn't get it
either until i met a man who made me free with these
words met a man who made me free with these words there's
a light at the end of the tunnel there's a light at the
end of the tunnel and that light is generated by a fire
that i'm gonna fall into and burn for eternity and then
he was no longer breathing/there at her feet
