I’ll spend the rest of my days on burned out sheets, out of the need to please
The motel room and the suffering gloom will follow me
Because the reason’s deep there’s no relief
I’ve got someone that I never want to let leave
Tearing down the beautiful things you say to me, to make me feel ok.
I took too much now there’s nothing left to celebrate
And all my body aches in these twin lakes
I’m so tired I just want to get paid
Oh you were lied to.
Oh it’s shameful out here
It’s shameful out here
It’s shameful and you lie here by yourself
Cover my name my earnest shame in circumstance
We don’t need romance today
The rose it stood by the burning wood on Saturday
I don’t need these things to help me play
One true song that I never meant anyway
