[Verse 1] You sit, and you stir You grieve and you grieve The same chair as your old man Your mother's worse than you think Sunken eyes and a withering frame The needle quiets the longing That poison, it fills… it fills her veins (One by one, one by one) [Chorus] So quiet when the pain comes Your mother's rosary ain't bringing father home Blood...Learn More

[Verse 1] "Dear God, what have you done?" Those words ring loud in the back of your head That bottle lies in a thick, blood red [Chorus] I ain't no forgiver, forgetter I ain't no forgiver, forgetter Our mother waits in vain for a God that never loved us As much as she prayed, he never showed up [Verse 2] Dear God, where have you gone?

"Where were you every night I woke up alone?" Cold sweat keeps you up, "This ain't no kind of home" "Come pick me up" "Damn those boys at the bar, damn the way that you drink" Cold sweat, sleepless nights, when your hands start to shake "Damn that pier where you sit, damn your vengeance for him There's no bringing him back, fucking buried and...Learn More

[Verse 1] Unwanted, but breathing In the next room, sleeping My mother, she's crying And my father's been drinking In our run-down apartment Where the roof is still leaking He's cursing and cussing It's just the whiskey talking [Chorus 1] And I've got lots of memories like this one Of empty days and nights spent tired and lonesome But when I think...Learn More

Hello, my dear It's so nice to see you here How long has it been? Oh, it feels like years But I'm sure it's just been days Been walking around alone Drunk and missing you at home You know I'll never feel the same Or ask another girl to take my name Think I've been stopping by too much Don't want you to get sick of me On my way home from the...Learn More

The way she looked at you, tears streaming down her face You felt the brush of her dress as she walked away And that's all that it took, sat down to buy her a drink An empty or a half full glass, it all goes down the same And that's the way that it's been Years later she took your name Hopeful and now unafraid Your gut sinks each time you see...Learn More

Lost in your own head But then a knock at the door Put down that drink Your steps creaking the floor Go and get the gun Distract yourself from death Back against the door Your hands are starting to sweat Slowly cock the gun Slowly move to the side Slowly turn the handle Slowly open it wide Catch a glimpse of his face Your heart sinks in your...Learn More

[Verse 1] Let's talk about the old days Let's talk about your friends Let's talk about the summer And how you wish it wouldn't end Did I forget to tell you How pretty you looked in that dress?

[Intro] As the waves crash, the clouds roll As the waves crash, the clouds roll [Verse 1] Sit on the dock waiting for the sun Wait for the coward but he never comes Pray for revenge on him Steam rises as the boats come in one by one One by one [Chorus] You know she is gone You know there's no saving her You know she is gone You know Her cheating,...Learn More

[Verse 1] You need to get out of this house I'll walk you down to town We'll go act our age Kick rocks, waste summer days Penny candy at the general store I'd buy us a pop if I had more Keep walking inland all day Spitting and cursing each other’s name [Chorus] Ain't this what, ain't this what brothers are supposed to do? The blood between us,...Learn More

You're going to find him and make him pay Stumble out to the bar "Take one more look at her and it will be the end of your days You low-life bookie, you don't scare me" "I ain't settling no debt, I ain't saving no face One more drink then I'm gone And then I'll drag you out of this place" Put it down for the courage Your fists clench with the...Learn More

[Verse 1] Buried him in the cold wet ground Familiar faces would have made him proud The military and the working man The history of the life he led [Bridge] Can you feel that soil covering your coffin?
