Sleeping in the desert keeps me up at night
Trying to run the thoughts away
Can't see the stars from the city lights
I got another seven hours till I reach the day

Remember on the river when you told me you cried
The first time we made love
Told me that you missed me
But I knew you'd lied
I was too good to leave, but too hard to love

I got scratches up and down my spine
Food in the kitchen, but it isn't mine
Lost another woman to my selfish pride
I got a half a bag left of my baby's wine

Southbound and searching for an exit sign
I've already gone too far
Feels so good to corrupt my mind
You know the holy rollers drink at the other bar
Needle in a haystack
Sitting on a comeback
Dumb enough to play the part
Good luck boy, you're gonna need it now
You know you're fighting with the devil and a change of heart

I got scratches up and down my spine
Flowers in the kitchen, but it they've already died
Lost another woman to my selfish pride
I got a half a bag left of my baby's wine

I got scratches up and down my spine
Flowers in the kitchen, but it they've already died
Lost another woman to my selfish pride
I got a half a bag left of my baby's wine
