Lyrics

Took a look at his face
One time
I could tell that his hands were tied
A dead head drinking whiskey and rye
He said, son
I know you
I’ve seen your friends and your lovers too
I’ve been watching you burn trying to play it cool
I know the problems won’t stop coming
Those women, fools, and money
Take another sip of your drink you look funny
Can’t you see what you’ve thrown away
I call you out and you hide your face
Was it ever yours to waste
Who
Are you
And what have you done with everything you had
It passed
You took it all and you buried it
Don’t waste me
Erase me
Come back to life
And show me who
I knew
Before the horses ran
Stuck on the street
Late night
Haven’t slept but I don’t mind
Realized I’ve never felt this good in my life
A dress
Follows me
Spare change and something to see
I could tell what you’ve done and where you’ll be
She said,
I know the problems won’t stop coming
Those women, fools, and money
It’s easier to live in the light when it’s sunny
Can’t you see what you’ve thrown away
I call you out and you hide your face
Was it ever yours to waste
Who
Are you
And what have you done with everything you had
It passed
You took it all and you buried it
Don’t waste me
Erase me
Come back to life
Show me who
I knew
Before the horses ran
