Idle in a parking lot and we lit a cigarette
ashes snow on black pants when she leans in for a peck
the cheek for now, but here's a losing bet
Ill have that girl, Ill own her scent
Texas will always be home for me
Georgia you've left me high and lonely
I haunt my one bedroom me and me only
Fears hit like bullets when you know your a phony
Wheres that peace i hear about
Raised on religion always had my doubt
If a God is real then I got left out
Where was He during my 28 year drought
Doesn't matter shes not comin back
I'm doing right cleaning the act
Needle to record and a Weakerthans track
I know you hated it but it's my thoughts on wax
Nowadays your ears are deaf to me
I'm not bitter but you took whats left of me
I feel I could write you the most beautiful symphony
You would stare blankly at the skeleton thats left of me
Our train derailed and I was drunk at the helm
I'm dug in deep in shit feeling all but well
These pitch black nights while I search for a trail
Sore back sore knees sore eyes, a streak of fails
Grasp at straws search for meaning
Theres a purpose around but its futile like dreaming
Alarm clock buzz and I wake up screaming
Would just one drink, one pill, be considered cheating?
And now I must make my great escape
Crackling skeleton on the verge of break
Ill travel on West if life's there for the take
I wish you well if we dont lay eyes til my wake
