Wilted Rose

i’m a wilted rose
i’m a wilted rose
in a jack daniels whiskey bottle
there’s a faint floral glow
a shadow cast upon chalkboard
the moon and sun right beside me
and the stars looking so grey against the blackness of the night sky
i’m a wilted rose
i’m a wilted ro-ose
only you would know with the smoke rising above our heads
that the beer is running low and i’ve got nowhere to go
cause i’m a wilting rose in a jack daniel’s whiskey bottle and i'm feeling so alone

Vacant By & By

I'm not telling the truth
The truth is telling me to give into the lies
I hold close to my absent chest
The cavity that lays vacant by & by
As lovers search for a warm respite
And I offer only a facade
My love is a getaway vacation gone awry
By the end you'll be hungover and cry
I'll tell you I'm not one to fight
You'll get upset and scream while I just keep quiet
And I'll watch you walk away
I know in the end oh I'll be ok
Or at least alright enough to make it through the day
But when the night comes and I'm alone
When you ring I'll pick up the phone
Because all I've known
Is how to love

colorado the state of heart-break
you never let the love in
& you sure as hell won't let it get away
from coast to plain-lands you attract those who've lost faith in it all
& we share the same stories
one of your denizens comes to abduct us
& it always works because we're afraid of being stuck
& it's so much easier & better than actually moving on
colorado the state of heart-break
you abduct us when we've got nowhere else to go away
oh colorado i know i said i wouldn't be back anytime soon
but your just so god damn intoxicating
so if you see me again...
could you please just remain a friend of mine
oh colorado
i'll be back sometime soon...
