AIN'T NO EVIL IN THE SHADOW OF THE STEEPLE - MOMMA USED TO SAY. HOLY BIBLES & TENT REVIVALS KEPT HER ON THE NARROW WAY. DADDY WORKED 9-5 IN A SUIT & TIE TO UPHOLD THE FAMILY NAME.
dead sleep. you give good face, you've got so many. rubbing both your hands like you were shinning up a penny. everyones your friend everyones your lover.
HE WAS SITTING UP WAITING IN HIS CHAIR WHEN I GOT HOME. HE SAW MY STAGGER AND THE RED IN MY EYES.. ID BEEN TRYING TO DROWN THE PAIN FROM A HEART THAT JUST GOT BROKE.
He had everything he wanted. All his stars were lining up. Like an inside straight. When you go all in on a Vegas run. . Then one rainy night. While driving his Mercedes up that ladder.
Here I am in this room again. My woman left me, oh in this place. Here I am, yes I'm crying again. She didn't tell me she had a goal. There was no reason. Didn't know..
far to many miles between me and mind mountains. passion is not drowning in these suburban seas. everybody has a path for the taking. everybody has a cure for your disease.
i'm common in the way i. walk, talk, and breathe. i nail my heart to my sleeve. and i'm common in the way i. look at all your friends. want to reach new ends.
BACK ME IN A CORNER AND ILL COME OUT PUNCHIN. STACK THE DECK AGAINST ME AND ILL KEEP ON COMIN. TELL ME THAT I CANT. TELL ME THAT IM WRONG. ILL KEEP PUSHING ON.
here come old flat top, he come grooving up slowly. he got joo joo eyeball, he one holy roller. he got hair down to his knee. got to be a joker he just do what he please.
The day that I was born, someone cried all aboard. My destination was a mystery. Started nice and slow, I heard that whistle blow. At every crossing I've been pickin' up speed.
You and me and a bottle of screw-top wine. We headed out to the lake for a little unplug and unwind. In my old Silverado, draggin' your daddy's boat behind.
fare you well, my honey. fare you well, my only true one. all the birds that were singing. are flown, except you alone. . gonna leave this brokedown palace.
The dust had barely settled,. He had the taste of metal and gunpowder in his mouth,. He rolled over to his buddy,. Both of them were bloody,. But from the looks of things theyd both make it out,.
a simple formula. music and love. screw yourself. forgetting all of the above. if we can't join the fools. maybe we'll beat them. if you're not playing ball.
what. lets do the bongjam. . i love my friends. let me tell you i love my friends. and though my friends are broken, i love them anyway. because you see, i am broken too, and i love myself like i love my broken friends.
I DIDNT LEAVE THEM DISAPPOINTED. MADE A PROMISE, AND KEPT IT TRUE. LAST TIME I SAW THEM THEY WERE POINTING. CAUSE I DID WHAT THEY WERE SCARED TO DO. THEY SAID IT COULDNT BE DONE.
Just how far is too far away. Will you share your blood with me?. I'll share mine with you. . After all the warning. Know that I'm not better still. I'm begging still, let's risk it, here we go.
hear me out. nothing in the world pulls me down inside. now i know it all seems better. just a moment. i'd like to stay here for a while. though it may seem infantile.
