Blue Oyster Cult - Deadline Lyrics
You said youd be here at a quarter to fiveI didnt know if you were dead or aliveHow long you think that I can sharpen my knifeIve got better things to do with my lifeIts almost the deadlineDont miss the deadline, darlingWhen all your bad dreams will come trueDont miss the deadlineIts almost the deadline, darlingI wouldnt want it to happen to youPhil screamed at him, and he hung up the phoneI wonder if he ever felt more aloneHe never finished his coffee that nightThe photo they showed david was a terrible sightHe missed the deadlineHe passed the deadline, darlingAnd I believe that somehow he knewHe crossed the deadlineHe passed the deadline, darlingThere wasnt a thing anybody could doListen my darling, now, dont play with fireYou find a way to balance faith and desireIts almost the deadlineDont miss the deadline darlingConsequences are easily misconstruedDont miss the deadlineIts almost the deadline, darlingI couldnt live if it happened to you
