The Deep Blue Sea

A shipwreck we were lost at sea
We were drowning it was you and me
It was a rogue wave that came crashing through and took away everything
It was the nighttime when it all fell apart
Yeah there were lies and this was only the start
This love could kill us and it's getting some help from
The deep blue sea
Yeah there were lifeboats but no room for us
So we burned that bridge yeah we spit in the dust
No sign of rescue which is fine by me cause there's nothing to save
With my last breath I wanna give you a kiss
And tell you how much I hated this
But it's too late cause you're already swimming to another guy
Gasp for air
Never look back
Your lips are turning blue my vision's going black
A watery grave how appropriate
Cause it felt like we were drowning since we started this
Like a captain going down with the ship
I'll just stay here and let the water come in
I'll let it take me and fill my lungs like you used to do
They say the ocean has no memory
So that's the perfect place for you and me
I can forget you until I see your name tattooed on my arm
So now I'll wait here in the deepest abyss
In this darkness with your name on my lips
Between heaven and hell I dwell until you ship passes by
Then I'll reach out with the strength of the sea
Toss you over sink down to me
You can stay her for eternity
While the waves crash by

Walk The Tracks
03:28

Well it's a damn fine line between darkness and the light
It's a damn fine line between wrong and what is right
It's a damn fine place for the two of us to meet
In that twilight realm where shadows tend to creep
Oh my dear brother let's walk the tracks
Oh my dear brother let's walk the tracks
The world we left behind it ain't going nowhere
It'll be waiting for us when we come back
Oh my dear brother let's walk the tracks
Sometimes it's work just to keep those voices at bay
Sometimes you turn up the music scream it out just fucking play
Sometimes that doubt sets in and you can't stand another word
Yeah there are fences but I got songs that you ain't heard
Nobody means it when they say I'll see you soon
So let's finish this bottle and you can play me one more tune
One last dance on that line between wrong and right
And I'll walk with you brother through the darkest of nights

Watch It Burn
03:04

I lived by myself for most of my life
But times are tough and the rent is tight
I gotta new guy and he just moved in
He's gotta pointy beard and a pointy grin
Well he parties all night and he sleeps all day
And tells me that his work is play
He never says no to drugs or drink
He says boy lemme tell you what I think
He says hell yeah
Just add alcohol and watch it burn
Well I never see him eat and he keeps his door shut
But I hear him fucking and he fucks a lot
A different girl every night and it's always the same
They always leave his room in shame
I tried a couple times to keep up with him
He drank a bottle of whiskey I drank a bottle of gin
And when I passed out he poured himself another drink
He said boy lemme tell you what I think
Now there's nothing left that I can do
He's got his hooks inside of me
I pray to god I can survive this and he says
Don't pray to god pray to me
He says don't pray to god pray to me

Let's Get Nuts
03:56

Come on baby let's get nuts
The summer's almost over we can do anything we want
Come on baby let's get nuts
We'll pull those bottles down from walls and do whatever we want
Well our secret's safe with no one so we hide it from ourselves
And we sneak around like kids cause it's the only way we know how
And when September's come and gone and I'll write you every day
And then I'll burn up every letter and forget what I had to say
There's a danger there inside your stare and we're both consenting adults I swear
Yeah right yeah right
There's tan lines where your ring should be and your husband should be here not me
But I don't know him and you're so beautiful so fucking beautiful
One more night
One more dance
One more black lie
