Direct me for I am worn
She tells me through thick and wide doors
Decisions are stressful and life gets so messy
It leaves us entrenched in remorse
Well I'd help you if I had a clue
Instead I'm as anxious as you
So leave me to stir in intangible hurt
A hurt that no hands can undo
I've got this feeling in the pit of my belly
The one that convinced me that crying and yelling
Was how I would get through, the right way of dealing with this
I've got a woman that I love and cherish
But I can't commit to consuming her sadness
So I'll be gone swiftly
South out of Phoenix again
Each place has it's own ups and downs
It's worse for a stranger in town
You've got a big X on the back of your head
And they talk and they gossip so loud
Stick around and assimilate fine
Fit into a tragic design
Just another life lost to the grim albatross
Trapped in a facet of time
And I've got this feeling in the pit of my belly
An aching and pulling that is trying to tell me
You made a mistake and you must go back searching for her
I loved a woman so sweet and so tender
Now I'm just hoping she only remembers
Me fondly as I may return to the place of our birth
Now I'm sitting alone in the dark
With my head in my hands and a hole in my heart
And the moment I see her the ring on her finger
Pins me where optimists starve
And I'm walking the streets once again
Like a creature of night shooting dice with the dead
And I'm dreaming of her and her hazy allure
Just wishing the wailing would end
this album is sooo fking good, it has me crying and laughing and feeling so much gratitude for my 3 yrs of sobriety. wishing yall a slow n steady recovery <3<3<3 huckbutt
