Broke 03:26
A rundown motor Inn, had to stop for the night, Couldn't keep the lie going, you’re like that vacancy sign Neon light keeps buzzing, I cant get no sleep. The price of freedom, I’m paying and it ain’t cheap. When the room is filling up with water, I’m gonna float About to give up you know I oughta, but I don’t You can’t hold on to a heartache when it’s made of smoke Finding things that break don’t always stay…Broke. Left you in the storm, let the Santa Ana’s blow, That wayward wind of yours has let me down slow The mountains I’m moving, are tumbleweeds by the red sunrise When every new love starts from a last goodbye. When the room is filling up with water, I’m gonna float About to give up you know I oughta, but I don’t You can’t hold on to a heartache when it’s made of smoke Finding things that break don’t always stay…Broke. Ride it out, Ride it out and shut my eyes, as, Black and as Low the vulture flies, I’m Soaring to the ground just like The shell of the bullet fired… so empty inside. When the room is filling up with water, I’m gonna float About to give up you know I oughta, but I don’t Why hold on to a heartache, when I know you won’t Finding things that break, don’t always stay… Things that break, don’t always stay… Things that break, don’t always stay…Broke.

Wash away the past, draw the needle back Fallen petals of warmer weather curse the sky cold black Let the rain inside, tears don’t have to hide The life we made, you dug a grave, Jesus wept tonight All my winters came today When you took your love away All my winters came today, today, hey hey. Push the splinter down, hurt from inside out If the suffering, wont give in then hold it dearly now And tie the rubber tight, Walk upon thin ice Thoughts of us go sweetly numb pray and close my eyes All my winters came today When you took your love away All my winters came today, today, hey hey. A heart frozen, can’t heal what’s broken, You say you love her, I found another and I sink under. All my winters came today (Feed my soul as all in heaven wait) When you took your love away (Heed the call a sudden fall from grace) All my winters came today, today, hey hey. Hey, hey.

Red tail lights and south tail winds every story begins Somewhere in the middle of a storm Where love is a backhand toll, bottles crash and dreams are sold Thought wedding bells all chime holy war He was taller than the last line on the wall Young hearts break no one to hear them fall Whiskey bottles rolling down the hall but He’s gonna Rest In Pieces after all. Years leave an icy trail, young father baby on the way But it took a life the day she was born. The child grew into a girl, Watched how pages fail to turn As he passed out drunk escaping what he’d sworn She was taller than the last line on the wall Tears will fly no one to catch them fall Whiskey bottles rolling down the hall and She’s gonna Rest In Pieces after all. Where do the dreams go? Does god above even know? What happens below. 40 proof dominoes, Knocking down souls as it goes And goes & goes & goes…. He was taller than the last line on the wall Tries to calm the hunger of the call One last breath and lets the bottle fall and He’s gonna Rest In Pieces after all

Graceland 03:55
It’s a long road, I’m on to get me here When all the lights have gone out but the stars So I’ll follow them wherever they lead me dear Far away, far away from your heart How do I justify what I have done Coz these are words that I may never find I can't say that I’m sorry and carry on When the heart, when the heartache ain’t mine If I make it all the way down to Memphis If I leave you would you find some peace I cant change who I am but I do what I can To find me some grace in Graceland In the silence I still hear you singing All the words to “Dont Be Cruel” I made mistakes, but are they worth forgiving Will I find my, find my home to you If I make it all the way down to Memphis If I leave you would you find some peace I cant change who I am but I do what I can To find me some grace in Graceland If I make it all the way down to Memphis If I leave you would you find some peace I cant change who I ams but I do what I can To find me some grace in Graceland

Woke up in a hurricane Saw it all get swept away With all the reasons you can’t stay Hungover and hung out to dry Behind the wheel crossing the line Your last words stir in my mind And make me come undone tonight Jesus loves me but you don’t So I’m praying for the pain to go Maybe he’s got better plans And all I got’s Time on my hands Like a bird sings in a cage Trapped by own mistakes This too will pass all my friends say I guess it’s just a waiting game Jesus loves me but you don’t So I’m praying for the pain to go Maybe he’s got better plans And all I got’s Time on my hands Jesus loves me but you don’t So I’m praying for the pain to go Maybe he’s got better plans And all I got’s Time on my hands All I got’s Time on my hands All I got’s Time on my …hands.
