Wishbones |
Day after day after |
Trying to understand |
Why the world tries to grind you down |
Make a ghost out of a man |
Your debt of grace is due |
And you’ve pawned everything you own |
I guess some dreams just don’t come true |
Nothin' left but skin and wishbones |
Each year the world gets lonelier |
And uglier with sin |
You’ll never see those blue skies |
Through young eyes again |
You’ve prayed to every god you’ve known |
Just to wind up all alone |
Your friends are gone, your mama’s dead |
Nothin' left but skin and wishbones |
Spin the bottle cap |
Throw a shot back |
Everything’s gonna be all right |
Spin the bottle cap |
Throw a shot back |
Cough and cry, lay down and die |
Grab an end, hold on tight |
Bottles and bones in the night |
You’ll never go back home |
You old wishbone |
Can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t think |
Not knowing where to go |
This is real life, brother |
This ain’t no reality show |
If suffering is human |
Well, I guess we’re not alone |
You’ll survive on next to nothing |
But you won’t live on skin and wishbones |
Spin the bottle cap |
Throw a shot back |
Everything’s gonna be all right |
Spin the bottle cap |
Throw a shot back |
Cough and cry, lay down and die |
Make a wish upon a star tonight |
Everything’s gonna be alright |
Spin the bottle cap |
Throw a shot back |
Cough and cry, lay down and die |
Grab an end, hold on tight |
Bottles and bones in the night |
You’ll never go back home |
You old wishbone |
Grab an end, hold on tight |
Breaking bottles and bones in the night |
You’ll never go back home |
You old wishbone |
