lyrics

there's a feeling i get on days like these where it's like i've got some rare disease and i'm doomed to destroy everything before it starts. i just wanna get drunk - watch "walk the line", pretend a pretty little girl like june were mine, and if i ever died - she'd die too, of a broken heart.

they say you lay your heart where you lay your head and there's a pretty little girl sleeping in my bed but she's banished me to sleep alone on the couch. i could lay down face-first in the dirt just to save her shoes from this wretched earth and she'd tell her friends i'm a no-good, lazy slouch.

and i say "don't you go. you're the light inside my life that lets me see." and she says "don't you know you're the bright that burned and blinded little me".

there's a feeling i get on nights like this where i think i'll disappear out west and wander off into a mountain range for good. i just wanna get drunk - watch the sun go down, as far as i can from this dead-end town, just be in mother nature's neighborhood.

they say you lay your heart where you lay your head. there's a loyal little pup - sleeps beside my bed. truth be told, she's the only one i need. i could pass out, face-first in the dirt - there'd be no one there to judge my worth...just me and that dog living, fancy-free.

when the sun goes down, i'm lonesome. i'm weaker than i talk. these lips are less than wholesome, and they rarely talk to God...but when they do, i swear it's true, hallelujah they ask for you.
