A Lovely Conversation

let it fall with the ashes
yesterday's finally begun
now we're climbing down the mountain
riding high like the bullets from a smoking gun
so what if nothing happened
we were out there having fun
a momentary satisfaction
we were young and way too dumb
baby i know
these things change
feels like i'm running from the police
like i stole $20 from your mama's purse
now we're hiding in the shadows
waiting for the doctor to bring a cure
if you still love me tomorrow
when all the money's gone
then you'll still love me tomorrow
when everything's gone wrong
baby I know
these things change
such a lovely conversation
but i wish we never met

One In The Garden

One In The Garden
one foot in the door
the other's in my past
one hand in the air
the other's still on the glass
one eye on the door
the other's on the floor
i just don't I can live this way anymore
at the end of the world
on the top of a mountain
wearing a sleepy stare
like you knew something good was gonna happen
if i'm not there with you
just know it was because
you know i just couldn't live this way anymore
if we stick one foot in the grave
and one in the garden
maybe one day all our hearts will align
with all the things that made them soften
we've got one foot in the grave and
one in the light
found a star that shines
i know that it ain't mine.
cos all you stars you come and go
all the goddamn time
with one wish for my head
one for my heart
one for the door
they all say we shouldn't live this way anymore
if we stick one foot in the grave
and one in the garden
maybe one day all our hearts will align
with all the things that made them soften
we've got one foot in the grave and
one in the light
one foot in the door
the other's in my past
one hand in the air
the other's still on the glass
one eye on the door
the other's on the floor
i just don't I can live this way anymore
if we stick one foot in the grave
and one in the garden
maybe one day all our hearts will align
with all the things that made them soften
we've got one foot in the grave and
one in the light

With Them Comes Hell

With Them Comes Hell
she only wanted to give her heart
she only wanted to give her heart
but now she's given up all her time
cleaning him up off the front yard
she only wanted to show him joy
she only wanted to show him joy
but he's such a mess
such a miserable boy
with him comes the void
i'll tell you once
i'll tell you time again
lovers beware a drunk musician
they've got a heart
they've got a story to tell
but with them comes hell
she's 26 but she feels 85
he's 29 but he feels 95
just dying, trying to keep their love alive
dying to survive
she only wanted to show him love
she only wanted to show him love
but now it's murder she's dreaming of
sweet death from above
i'll tell you once
i'll tell you time again
lovers beware a drunk musician
they've got a heart
they've got a story to tell
but with them comes hell.

Bottle To Bottle

Bottle To Bottle
bottle to bottle is the life i live
got drunk and burned every goddamn bridge
there ain't no excuse for the things I did
so i'll be at your doorstep
come the morning
pick me up and dust me back off again
i'm getting too old for this life of sin
if heaven and hell, they don't exist
then i'll be
at your doorstep
come the morning
turn the television off
turn that bright red light back on
i've been in love
i've been love scorned
ain't no flower that ain't got thorns
every pretty girl in this town
knows where i'll be come the morning
turn the television off
turn that bright red light back on
bottle to bottle is the life i live
got drunk and burned every goddamn bridge
there ain't no excuse for the things I did
so i'll be at your doorstep
come the morning
turn the television off
turn that bright red light back on

Here Comes The Cadillac

Here Comes The Cadillac
martha rolled out in an AVON cadillac
in a pepto bismol-colored suit
she spent her days slinging to her friends and acquaintances
she made her living in a living room
she made a killing in a living room
to an audience of bitter little hens
how they were clucking and flapping their wings
burping like tupperware
nursing a vein denied all the wisdom heir to aging
how the ugly duckling
was on her knees suckling the exhaust pipe
of an AVON cadillac
martha rolled out in a great big pink cadillac
with her smokes in a custom metallic case
she could never stand those housewife sticks
slender and slim
like a filter could pour out the perfect vision of a man
the idea held on longer than any real man could stand
how the apple was picked
then glued back to the branch
who knows when the worms decide on coming back?
here it comes
ladies don't you fear the calvary
the AVON cadillac
here it comes
it hears you rattle and it hears you him
don't you fear
the AVON cadillac
how the apple was picked
then glued back to the branch
who knows when the worms decide on coming back?
how the ugly duckling
was on her knees suckling the exhaust pipe
of an AVON cadillac

When I Get Back
i'm going down
to where my love don't mean a thing
cos we're all pining for something to speak of
when i get back
i might be a little worse
but will you still love me?
i'm falling fast
like a bird that's lost its feathers
that's been pining for
a note to deliver
when i get back
i might not say a word
but will you still love me?
i'm facing down
like a drunkard in a river
that's been fighting for
all he can't remember
when i get back
i can't promise i'll be sober
but will you will you still love me?
i'm going down
in a suit made for the winter
it was tailor made for a sinner
when i get back
i might be in a hearse
but will you still love me?
but will you still love me?
