"I got razor sharp mind that wants to cut you down
A little place in mind maybe I could bed you down
Pony up, we got a ways to go
Set me up my friend, I'm running low
Oh, if you take my hand I'm gonna get you outta here
The crash of bottles breaking and the swinging chandelier
In a rain of bullets and blood and snow
I saw the midnight coming and I watched her go
In a rain of bullets and blood and snow
I saw the midnight come and I watched her go
Yeah, I watched her go
I watched her
I watched her go"
I think this song is about his experience at a bar or party where he is trying to bring a girl home with him. He says he has a "razor sharp mind" in that he is clever and that he is trying to think of ways to "bed you down" as in sleep with her. When he says "pony up we got a ways to go" he is saying that he is far from getting her to come home and he needs to get to work. I think he means a bar in the sense that he wants the bartender to "set me up my friend im running low" as in he needs another drink to help him out. The second verse he is describing a wild scene from the bar or since he says "breaking bottles and swinging chandelier" makes me think it possibly could be a house party... either way it is a wild drinking scene and in the midst of the wild night he loses track of her or he loses her attention and she leaves.
