This is my very posting.
I remember my high school days
My friends and all the hell we raised
Looking back
I wish I was there again
One more chance to take a bow
One more chance to figure out how
To play the game
And maybe how to win
But all the cards are on the table
There's no ace left in the hole
I'm not coming back tomorrow
It's time for me to go
So pour me
One more shot of tequila
And then my friends I'm gone

Miles away I still see you face
Years have passed I still hear your names
The laughter and tears
The echo in the rain
Now and then I wander back
Through my mind into the past
I sometimes think
I'd like to go home again
Would I fit into your world now
If I drifted back your way
I know there's no tomorrow
Just like there's no yesterday
So pour me
One more shot of tequila
And then my friends I'm gone

I spent the years trying to deny
Everything I was
This sacrificial web of doubt
Lost in pointless lies
But the time has come, my friends, at last
To end this childish game
No more running, no more fears
That somehow we're the same

I guess it's time to close this book
No more chapters, no second looks
Guess I always knew
This moment would come someday
But this time when I say goodbye
There's nothing left between you and I
A fond farewell
To lead me on my way
A fleeting glimpse of sorrow
A passing ebb and flow
I'm not coming back tomorrow
It's time for me to go
So pour just
One last shot of tequila
Drink it when I'm gone
