Ballad in Open D

Loneliness is not something that I’m used to Loneliness is not something that I’m used to But sleeping well is just something that I used to do And making love is just something that I used to do Well I tried to fill my empty nights with drinking I’m going to keep on trying to [...]

Sound of the Season Ending

My ceiling is just a washed out sky With dead or dying moths within the light I would lie down happily And follow them whereever they are going Is this the worst you’ve ever seen My head is just a pinball machine Without any bumpers To help me keep my thoughts from rolling out Tell me you can [...]

I Don’t Care Sincerely

Don’t write me back Don’t write me back I can’t react the way you want Don’t call my phone I’m not at home Your voice is just a static moan to me And it’s on and on I go alone You say it’s wrong to be in love The end’s plain to see So I left your keys Taped to your door with a note It said,”If [...]

Guilty

My mama is always trying And my sister is always hiding And my brother is always writing and riding The music is always playing No matter what I’m saying And my mama is always praying that we’re breathing That we’re breathing That we’re breathing The seasons are always changing And my love’s always rearranging And my heart has just been hanging and waiting And our lives aren’t [...]

I Can’t Remember

I can’t remember anything I said Not from the time of the rain To the end of the game Did I tell my secrets that nobody knows? Or did I cry like a boy who’s lost his girl? I don’t remember anything I’ve done Not since the night I was born To the end of this morning My lifetime was blurry like some kind of dream One that [...]

This Night Here (Something Like Hope)

This night here is perfect for getting lost Perfect for taking off Look at the sky I’m surpised you would ask me, to tell you why This night here is perfect for going wrong Trust me I know them well I can’t remember the last time that I did the right thing This night here is perfect for telling [...]

The Mourning, The Silver, The Bell

Do you know me? Well I know you Just like I know the sun is blue The grass is orange and the sky is green and a woman’s heart runs on gasoline Did you see me? Well I saw you So late at night that the day was new And after taking a heavy dose And the funny thing is my eyes were closed [...]

Carolyn Sells

Carolyn sells, Carolyn sells this photograph fails to tell me what kind of girl you became Carolyn sells, Carolyn sells this photograph tells me at least you were pretty fifty years ago

Getting Us All

How much rum can I hold? How much rum can I hold? Just yesternight I was told You better not drink when you’re old But of course But of course Age gets us all How many times will you hear? The funeral sounds in your ear I’m listening in my lowest gear And fading in [...]
