I'm sad Baby I'm sad But I haven't thought about Ending it for months now Cause when those dark thoughts draw near I say Devil disappear And just like that They're gone For good She's sad She tells me she's sad Because nothing works out The way you've got it in your head And those feelings are hard to lose When you've got no one to give em to So she goes back And she's gone For good

Waiting 03:14
Waiting in line like a crowd for a ride With a few less ups than downs We've huddled inside to see just one last time The body above the ground And comforting words were made for the earth But in heaven, they've got no use And the man says believe, it's more than you see This life's just a burning fuse It makes me feel about three feet tall And if you feel about three feet tall Then you should stand up on my shoulders And tell me what it looks like Paul on his way to Damascus Blinded when a bright light lit the road And Tom swore he saw the nails go in I won't believe till I see the holes And Jonah never really had a choice As soon as he set sail But if the good Lord's got a plan for me He'd better send a whale Cause I feel about three feet tall And if you feel about three feet tall Then you should stand up on my shoulders And tell me what it looks like And if you think you can't see at all Cause sometimes I can't see at all Then you should just put your hand in mine And we'll feel against the wall Now whoever's free of sin Let him cast the first stone and cast me out But I saw that storm growing Long before I came aboard this ship And my tale is written by fishermen To assuage their guilt from the waves I drowned in But there was no whale to be found in them As I sunk to the bottom of the sea

Home 04:53
We borrowed money, we borrowed time planned to leave before the next sunrise But an hour till, you told me that you had to go But you'd be back in a little while I just had to sit there practicing my smile Cause we hadn't had much reason for smiling in years But baby it's hard Carrying a load Over fences through the yards All the way back home She tells me that she's sorry Didn't mean to put it on me I tell her not to worry I'm doing just fine I lie a little say it don't hurt much but my Bones are aching, burning to her touch as I'm Carrying her cold, lifeless body back home Body back home Body back home We planned to meet out on a road out back Where the lights were low and the moon was but a crack in the sky Live or die Tomorrow we'll be leaving this town Well I saw her there where the light was low Her body laid bare by the side of the road And I felt my heart claw it's way From out of my chest But baby it's hard Carrying a load Over fences through the yards All the way back home I tell her I'm so sorry I know I should've been there She tells me boy don't worry I know you'll do just fine I scream my lungs out But no one could hear Like a tree alone in the forest Has nothing to fear I loaded my pistol Having no one to blame Once I'd laid her in the ground I slaughtered the whole town Just the same

Nothing comes easier than being afraid And nothing feels as shitty as the end of the day When all you've said comes back to you And all you're going through just fades away To that place where everyone is perfect and everyone is pure And everyone in Canada goes to bed with unlocked doors Because they can At least according to Michael Moore But if I fall, I'll fall for nothing And get back on my feet, on the street again And if I fall, I'll fall only wanting To land safe in her arms, numbing peace again Running from pain's a lot like running from the rain You can try your best to not get wet, but the drops all fall the same Now there's a whole sky coming down on you And all you've got's your measly little limbs We could hide out under the underpass Nobody'd know or think to ask and we'd Start a life and build a world A place to raise our boys and girls And we'd teach em breathe in if you can't swim
