lyrics

oh my god
we get drunk, and we stay drunk
and we don't even care who has to clean that mess up
we get loud if it feels right
and we hold onto love just a little too tight for our own good
cause the world is cold
and the drinks and the drugs fill the urges
but the love fills the soul
...or so we've been told
OK
and it gets bad on those long nights
with the stale air and the neon lights
but it gets worse on the next days
when you're swollen and hurt and it won't go away
til you go back to what's killing you in the first place
OK
what's the use?
if cowgirls never get the blues then i'd trade in these old shoes
for some cowboy boots, buy a nudie suit
with some rhinestones, and some cocaine, and a new name
and you will never see me again
OK

MORTARS Tennessee

The part of the lake where all the trash washes up, the driveway at the house show when the AC is broken and it is too hot to play inside, the basement where you have to watch what you step on and the air feels real heavy. That is where we shine.
