Domino
Oxia Lyrics

I knew that i had drunk too much
I was aware that I had consumed too much alcohol

I had passed my drink degree
I had exceeded my limit of alcohol tolerance

I climbed into my rented car
I got into the car that I had rented

I was happy as could be
I was overwhelmed with joy

Then i pulled out of the driveway
I drove the car out of the place where it was parked

And the lights began to blur
My vision got blurry

Within a mile the car was stopped
The car got stopped by law enforcement within a mile of driving

By a police officer - she said
A female law enforcement officer spoke to me

"did you see the light was red?
"Did you notice the traffic light was red?

Did you see the light at all?"
Did you see the traffic light or were you inattentive?

Then i fell into her open arm
I fainted and she caught me

And that's all that i recall
I don't remember anything else after that

I knew that i had danced before
I was aware that I had danced previously

But it never made the news
It was not something that was highlighted in the media

Surprised to find my two left feet
I was astonished to realize that I was not a good dancer

In john travolta's shoes
I felt like I was in the shoes of a legendary dancer like John Travolta

I hogged the space around a girl
I occupied most of the area around a girl

I found so full of verve
I noticed that she was full of energy

Then i moved in slowly for the kill
I approached her with the intention of romantic conquest

And watched her body swerve,
I saw her body move in a rhythmic way

She said "did you know i'm not impressed
She asked me if I knew that she wasn't impressed

With the way you dance at all"
She was not impressed with my dancing skills at all

Then i fell into her open arms
I fainted again, this time she caught me in her arms

Blacked out and wasted
I became unconscious and drunk

I had to be persuaded
I needed to be convinced

With my view a little jaded
My perception was a little impaired

That i was about to go
That I was about to leave

Down like a domino
Similar to how a line of dominoes fall, I was going to fall down too

I knew that i had said too much
I was aware that I had spoken too much on a particular topic

But tact was not my way
I was not good at being sensitive and diplomatic

Tears were on her bottom lip
Tears were forming at the bottom of her lip

She had nothing more to say except
She didn't have anything left to say, except

"did you know this love we have
"Were you aware of the love we have?

Has made me feel so small"
Our love has made me feel insignificant and unimportant

Then i fell into her open arms
I fainted for the final time and she caught me in her arms

And that's all that i recall
This is the last thing that I can remember
