Lyrics
When the whiskey aint taking
And the stars never shine
Its coming again as you grow older man
And I don?t want to roll home right now
Wish I could bring it down easy
Cause this ain?t a game
And im gonna need more than metaphors
To make it through this firecracker rain
As ill ride through this carousel
Till we all just tumble in
Snow shaded city
Give me something to see
These mannequin dragons breathe smoke and stare
But there?s nothing as jaded as me
So how do you feel this?
So hollow and blind
Congratulations on all of your suffocations
Money for smiles and time
As ill ride through this carousel
Till we all just tumble in
When the whiskey aint taking
Just shakes me down
I long to be kicking up the thieves
Of the truth in this god damn town
But break it down easy
This ain?t a game
And ill need more than metaphors
To make it through this firecracker rain
As ill ride through this carousel
Till we all just tumble in
And I feel like im dreaming
As this whiskey pulls another string
Who told you to cling to shadows
Who told you that I know the way around here
Cause im just the boy that sits and wonders
If the lightening and thunder could ever be scared
Cause im just lost and crazy now
Wish I had a heart To put in my soul
Wish I had a life to live I wish
Wish I had a knife to give my wrist
Wish I had a rope to soothe my throat
Wish I had a brain to put this bullet in?..
