Lyrics

I know it's been a while since I've been home
without the smell of all my sining on my clothes
but I hope that's something you can forgive
while I figure out this hell that I've been in
cause I've been restless I've reckless
sure been busy burning bridges
waiting on someone to take this from my hands
and I've been dancing with the devil at the bottom of the barrel
hoping that you'll give me one more one last chance
it's hard for me to understand how you give it all to me even when
it's better spent on a better man
you're giving me something that I don't deserve
I try to say I'm sorry but can never find the words
there's just something bout all this that don't feel right
cause I keep doing this to you time after time
cause I've been restless I've reckless
sure been busy burning bridges
waiting on someone to take this from my hands
and I've been dancing with the devil at the bottom of the barrel
hoping that you'll give me one more one last chance
it's hard for me to understand how you give it all to me even when
it's better spent on a better man
it's been a long time drifting on my own
but you're the only thing that ever felt like home
cause I've been restless I've reckless
sure been busy burning bridges
waiting on someone to take this from my hands
and I've been dancing with the devil at the bottom of the barrel
hoping that you'll give me one more one last chance
it's hard for me to understand how you give it all to me even when
it's better spent on a better man
