lyrics

realizing that I get depressed
my inescapable uselessness
like when my mom used to stay in bed all day
she hid her cigarettes in the bathroom but I found them anyway.
flushed them down the drain
threw them all away
if you find my cigarettes
discover my secrets
hidden in the lyrics
take them all away

my cousin works at an office job
he used to be an actor in LA
his dream is to open a bar and grill where the menu is short and incredible
and if you ask who's playing the music in the back he'll say,
"yeah, that's my cousin, my little cousin. ain't he pretty good?
ooh, what's the problem? oh, you're having a bad day? hey, hold on a minute. have a beer on me."

drove into Atlanta on tour one night
the trees arising over 85
that canopied my moonlight drive while Jamie switched the track to "Weight of Lies"
and we stood in the woods under a humid filtered light.
I want to stay here
please don't make me leave
on to the next town
we gotta go now
on to the next town
see another crowd.
