LYRICS
I put the day away, I keep my coffin tight
I walk a lonely road in the winter when the lights aren't bright
This house is empty now, all my friends have come and gone
With such an angry mouth it's hard to keep good company for long
I put on my Sunday best and head to town sometimes
To a bar that no one knows where they only serve me fine red wine
I think about my lover sleeping now with empty eyes
Pine box dreams and bloodless seams and I cannot find a way to draw the line
But I try and I fight it but it never comes
I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel
And it goes around until I fall
I try and I fight it but it's not enough
I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel
And it goes around until I fall
I keep the sun in mind, I drink my coffee black
I fasten neon signs to a city where they don't come back
The water’s rising high, and I'll be sinking at the break of dawn
Clouds keep coming on a railroad track
And my body is dead but I keep on keeping on
I take off my Monday best and I've been sleeping near the county line
In a bed that rolls and flows on a tear that never leaves my eye
I think about my lover now coming down heavy with her highway shoes
She's on her feet where we used to meet
And she's bored again with nothing left to lose

LYRICS
i fell apart on a downtown dream
where I was born as a thistle and gone like a missile
through a house of fickle beams
full of one time ballers and black jack callers
chewing on an unborn dramamine
that drive through the shadows lost inside the dark
all dolled up with time to kill
summer’s gonna cry the river dry
and the winter’s gonna get it on the fill
i’m pulling on days in stranger ways
and it’s hard keeping up that kind of thrill
when I’m sleeping in the back seat of a long black car
