"Stronger Than Me"

Oh, here I go again walking the line killing time between my sins Oh, why do I come here The ending’s still the same I’m bringing back old tears I act like I don’t know Where this road will go

Pour me something stronger Pour me something straight All these crooked voices, make them go away I can barely stand up I can hardly breathe Pour me something stronger than me Pour me something stronger than me

Sunrise hurts as much as you You both come when I don’t want you to Oh, I — can still hear you say That you and I would both be better off this way These things that I run to What I put my heart through

Pour me something stronger Pour me something straight All these crooked voices, make them go away I can barely stand up I can hardly breathe Pour me something stronger than me

WRONG GRAPHIC, but nonetheless…

White lips, pale face Breathing in snowflakes Burnt lungs, sour taste

Light’s gone, day’s end Struggling to pay rent Long nights, strange men

And they say She’s in the Class A Team Stuck in her daydream Been this way since eighteen But lately her face seems Slowly sinking, wasting Crumbling like pastries And they scream The worst things in life come free to us Cause we’re just under the upper hand And go mad for a couple grams And she don’t want to go outside tonight And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland And sells love to another man It’s too cold outside For angels to fly Angels to fly

Ripped gloves, rain coat Tried to swim and stay afloat Dry house, wet clothes

Loose change, bank notes Weary-eyed, dry throat Call girl, no phone

And they say She’s in the class A Team Stuck in her daydream Been this way since eighteen But lately, her face seems Slowly sinking, wasting Crumbling like pastries And they scream The worst things in life come free to us Cause we’re just under the upper hand And go mad for a couple grams And she don’t want to go outside tonight And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland And sells love to another man It’s too cold outside For angels to fly

An angel will die Covered in white Closed eyed And hoping for a better life This time, we’ll fade out tonight Straight down the line

And they say She’s in the Class A Team Stuck in her daydream Been this way since eighteen But lately her face seems Slowly sinking, wasting Crumbling like pastries They scream The worst things in life come to free us And we’re all under the upper hand Go mad for a couple grams And we don’t want to go outside tonight And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland And sell love to another man It’s too cold outside For angels to fly Angels to fly To fly, fly For angels to fly, to fly, to fly Or angels to die

#4amlyrics

I miss the sound of your voice And I miss the rush of your skin And I miss the still of the silence As you breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water If I could tell you what's next I'd make you believe I'd make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love

I miss the sound of your voice Loudest thing in my head And I ache to remember All the violent, sweet Perfect words that you said

If I could walk on water If I could tell you what's next I'd make you believe I'd make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love

I miss the pull of your heart I taste the sparks on your tongue I see angels and devils And God, when you come on Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Sing sha la la la Sing sha la la la la

Ooh Ooh Ooh

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love So come on, get higher, loosen my lips Faith and desire and the swing of your hips Just pull me down hard And drown me in love

It's all wrong, it's all wrong It's all wrong, it's so right So come on, get higher So come on and get higher 'Cause everything works, love Everything works in your arms.

28.2 [March arrival]

Love was the former owner But quiet is renting our house It ceases my lips from speaking But forms a sarcastic smile Suspense now raised one of your eyebrows You asked me if there's someone else I replied yes hell yes…

AND HER NAME IS------ME!!!!

#lost

The song came and went Like the times that we spent Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she’d smile It would last for awhile You don’t know what you’ve got till you lose it all again

Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Oh, listen to my heart break every time she runs away Oh, listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

A cool evening dance Listenin’ to the bluegrass band takes the chill From the air until they play the last song I’ll do my time Oh, keeping you off my mind but there’s moments That I find, I’m not feeling so strong

Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Ah, listen to my heart break every time she runs away Oh, listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

Runnin’ down by the lakeshore She did love the sound of a summer storm It played on the lake like a mandolin Now it’s washing her away once again…whoa, again

The boat’s steaming in Oh, I watch the sidewheel spin And I think about her when I hear that whistle blow I can’t change my mind Oh, I knew all the time that she’d go But that’s a choice I made long ago

Listen to the mandolin rain Listen to the music on the lake Ah, listen to my heart break every time she runs away Oh, listen to the banjo wind A sad song drifting low Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go As she turns to go Listen to the…listen to the mandolin rain

Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go Listen to the tears roll Down my face as she turns to go

Listen to the mandolin rain.

"…And every demon wants his pound of flesh But I like to keep some things to myself I like to keep my issues drawn It’s always darkest before the dawn

And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind I can never leave the past behind I can see no way, I can see no way I’m always dragging that horse around Our love is pastured, such a mournful sound Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground So I like to keep my issues drawn But it’s always darkest before the dawn…”

[I know HOW “…and our love is pastured”].
