dig in the ground squeeze my heart
I left it there for you
beat skippin’ echoes make their way
to the house of buried tunes
I’m a sea saw sinner without no name
I’m lost in the why
truth be told the cards you hold
their all just a pack of lies
some are winners
some they lose
some they never play
walk a thin line like goose step pines
in a small town parade
well it’s one for the money
two for the show
three’s the Holy Ghost
there’s a world outside far from here
on the Hand Shake Coast
I’m on the silver edge of night
so please give me space
as I gently fall from grace
I’ve lived a lofty life of crime
Now I’m chasin’ my tail
with a beggars empty pail
sometimes a man needs to fail
needs to fail
Fallin’ all together
pullin’ me apart
there’s only one thing to do
all of this luck in inside out
I’ve got the wrong attitude
all for one and one for all
even though my body’s split
I’m going to try to rise if the sun goes down
cause it’s too dark to quit
