Whiskey River II

i'd take the long way home to talk to you at night
anything to hear you say
hey baby how was your day
both of us knowing what we're doing wasn't right
but i couldn't turn the other cheek
you said misery loves company
pull in the driveway and i see that he's home
say babe i gotta go
as i hang up the phone
cover my tracks, erase your name
go inside, pour a double, try to drink away the pain
and now i'm praying whiskey river to come and take my mind
it doesn't matter what i do
i think about you all the time
i sip it shoot it drink it down
anything so i can drown these feelings torturing me
i'm here with all that i've got left
jameson and your memory
dreaming of days when we could live out our own life
i never told you i thought i'd be your wife
but i wasn't careful enough leaving my heart on my sleeve
living in a fantasy we found ourselves a harsh reality
where cruel words, blackmail, and violence abound
the last time i talked to you i said i'd never see you around
lie down alone in the bed i made
pace the floor, pour a double, try to forget your name
and now i'm praying whiskey river to come and take my mind
it doesn't matter what i do
i think about you all the time
i'll sip it shoot it drink it down
anything so i can drown these feelings torturing me
i'm here with all that i've got left
jameson and your memory
i remember graveyards, cheap guitars, pawn shops and pints
i remember short nights, pullout couches and holding you tight
i remember punk rock, paul revere, and nights at the whiskey priest
i remember every whisper, every kiss, every time i breathe
and now i'm praying whiskey river to come and take my mind
it doesn't matter what i do
i think about you all the time
i'll sip it shoot it drink it down
anything so i can drown these feelings torturing me
i'm here with all that i've got left
jameson and your memory

Wake Me Up
03:40

headlights retreating told me that you're leaving
i watched you go from the inside
didn't go out and run to you
didn't know if i was supposed to
so i sat and stared, watched my life drive by
now i'm as broken as i think i've ever been
wake me up if this is all a dream
words'll wound you with a tongue this sharp
didn't mean to break your heart
the first time that you opened it to me
but it was easier than sticks and stones
to tell you you're better off alone
this fortress of a heart don't have a key
love is hard but you shouldn't have to bleed
wake me up if this is all a dream
and now i miss you
oh i miss you so
lord i miss you
oh i miss you
and you'll never know
didn't take too long for you to see
i can't give you what i know you need
well i could've
but didn't is what i mean
wake me up if this is all a dream

Hell Hath No Fury

i should've known, i heard you say her name
sneaking around on me, well two can play that game
you didn't see me coming for you when i was coming home
call it women's intuition but i knew you wouldn't be alone
i don't like surprises, you didn't disappoint
seeing y'all all tangled up led me to my breaking point
honey there's no way for you to get out of this mess
been a long time coming, there's no need to confess
i've been cheated, you've been lying, we've been through this before
you thought you had one up on me but i'm here to settle the score
ain't got time to go through the forgive and forget
and if you think i'm angry now you ain't seen nothing yet
if you're not you should be worried
ain't you heard hell hath no fury
i won't take the high road, won't turn the other cheek
and eye for an eye's just not enough to satisfy me
honey don't you even think of saying another word
you and your little sweetheart are gonna get what you deserve
trust me i'll get my revenge
i'll make certain you won't hurt me again
i've been cheated, you've been lying, we've been through this before
you thought you had one up on me but i'm here to settle the score
ain't got time to go through the forgive and forget
and if you think i'm angry now you ain't seen nothing yet
if you're not you should be worried
ain't you heard hell hath no fury
fool me once, shame on me
fool me twice, you better pack your things and leave
i've been cheated, you've been lying, we've been through this before
you thought you had one up on me but i'm here to settle the score
ain't got time to go through the forgive and forget
and if you think i'm angry now you ain't seen nothing yet
if you're not you should be worried
ain't you heard hell hath no fury

Free From Prison
02:33

i was free from prison today
and all the while i had seen the sun on my face
but this was the first time it shined down on me
i asked the taxi man to take me home
still not quite sure where i'm going
but i got free from prison today
today's the day i lost that ball and chain
never knew how heavy or cumbersome it was
till i could run so light and fast and free
i never thought i'd walk again carrying around all my sins
but today's the day i lost that ball and chain
life is scary, all the opportunities
the possibilities seem infinite
when they're handed to you on a silver plate
you can't say no thanks i'll just wait
it'll pass you by, you have to seize the day
today's the day i rewrite history
all my sad, sad stories
a life of misery
now that's gone and the world is mine to see
still not knowing where that road is
but i'm going to stop and smell the roses
today's the day i rewrite history
today's the day i rewrite history

Home
03:44

when home feels like anywhere i can rest my head
and the one place it often doesn't is the place where i keep my bed
normal is only defined by what you work with every day
oh home, where will i find you today?
when the only thing that's consistent is the company i keep
though i see the world as not full of strangers
you're millions of people i've yet to meet
though i pride myself on solitude, my friends are the loves of my life
oh home, you're whoever i've got by my side
i've made my home near oceans and mountains and trees
deserts and islands, rivers and runways
even the back of a borrowed SUV
you see it's not where they leave the light on for you
it's wherever you see it shine
oh home, you're wherever i open my eyes
home...
well it's all in how you see it, just keep your heart open wide
oh home, where will i find you tonight
oh home, where will i find you tonight
