Well I was on the border line Of a suicidal state of mind Because all the love we had was gone But there was just one more courier flight And it was leaving in the cold morning light And that's the one you can be sure that I was on And so I took a long last glance Around this glorified garbage can And then I burned all of my bridges goodbye And now I'm staggering a jagged line All around this glorious equator line So don't come looking, because I'm already gone And I'm gonna dive, dive, dive, dive into this pale moonlight And I'm gonna dance, dance, dance until I fall You know I wanna lose my head inside a song And I'm gonna drag you all along But don't you miss me, because I'm already gone I got a stack of presidents Stuck way down into my pants I got a pair of Jesus boots and a head all full of song Back home I never seem to get it right But it doesn't seem to matter tonight
Because I'm here and you know I'm already gone And I'm gonna dive, dive, dive, dive into this pale moonlight And I'm gonna dance, dance, dance until I fall You know I wanna lose my head inside a song And I'm gonna drag you all along But don't you miss me, because I'm already gone I'm already gone Well I'm one day older And I'm feeling like a soldier Yeah, you know it's colder than a morgue out on this quay But I'm ready for a last trip As they hoist me on board this container ship 'Cause where I'm going to, nobody knows my name And I'm gonna dive, dive, dive, dive into this pale moonlight And I'm gonna dance, dance, dance until I fall You know I wanna lose my head inside a song And I'm gonna drag you all along But don't you miss me, because I'm already gone I'm already gone I'm already gone I'm already gone I'm already gone I'm already
