drinkin’ bad juice at the christ­blood revival set their minds singin’ on a hymn from the bible got all the way here without my help now they keep drummin’ up the sin from beneath my belt oh you, all you brimstone suckers i don’t know which way to turn i ain’t got much time to burn baby they don’t speak the truth and they don’t care what it does to you they’ll try to cut you down to their size with some lies and in the morning leave you cold and bleeding in the street then they’ll wonder how you ever got so mean so i’m drivin’ down the road with a drunk alligator running from the law and the hate that i gave her watch me disappear behind a blistering sun, tell me god won’t forgive me for raising a son? oh you, all you brimstone suckers i don’t know which way to turn i ain’t got much time to burn baby they don’t speak the truth and they don’t care what it does to you they’ll try to cut you down to their size with some lies and they’ll be tryin’ hard to guess how we ever kept our pretty hands clean i’ve got to get away from this scene and start runnin’ down my dream away from everybody acting like teens and the hungover fluorescent routine and the trigger happy internet queens all trapped in basements like sardines staring at their glowing screens who’ve never heard of steve mcqueen they’re as pathetic as i’m obscene

caught your fist in my southern mouth when you found her ghost sleepin’ in our house she was there with me, she was ev­e­ry dream she was in our bed when you were on your knees so send a post­card when you go we’ll be better off alone go get lost in your city speed and i’ll be here any time you need a little piece of me well we had such a good time while it lasted and honey you’ll stay on my mind until i can say “i don’t need your love” so send a post­card when you go we’ll be better off alone go get lost in your city speed and i’ll be here any time you need a little piece of me a little piece of me a little piece of me caught your fist in my southern mouth when you found her ghost sleepin’ in our house she was there with me, she was on TV she was in our bed when you were on your knees

we walked to the party holding hands but you walked through that party lookin’ for your next man and you said “one, just one beer” eighteen beers ago and you’re lookin’ just like a fool, baby i should know and i should know better but better him than me now i’ll put on my boots you just watch TV and i’ll go leave my troubles at the farm you simple bitch, thinkin’ you’ll just marry rich with lies, lies, lies, lies, lying’s just like breathing to you you fooled me once that’ll do

the harder you swim, the faster you drown the harder you swim, the faster you drown so doctor, please ‘cause i won’t know if she’s left her face to the floor doctor, please said i won’t know if she’s left her face to the floor so would you call me? call me if you find her on the beach with her face to the sun call me if she left him at home and decided to run call me if she’s stranded in the desert with her hair in her mouth call me if she fell through one of them big holes in the couch would you call me? the harder you swim, the faster you drown the harder you swim, the faster you drown

Pastoral 02:55
try to keep your make­up on and try to keep an eye on the ball crack another bottle but don’t trust that i’ll comfort your fall you’ve got it all there’s much more to be than what you can fit on the rings of your tree this life’s a disease try to keep your dinner down and don’t let that heart grow so cold surprise yourself alive the day you find the silver threads amongst the mold you’ve got it all there’s much more to be than how many rings you count on your tree this life’s a disease and it’s eating clean through me try to keep your make­up on and try to keep an eye on the ball
