Something so inviting
First thing in the morning
I’m as equally frightened
By the end of the day
I got sand in my pockets
It kinda weighs me down
But I’m happy and holy and free
Smoke in my belly
A drink in my lungs
I may not be an addict but I’m turning into one
I got a voice in my pocket
It kinda weighs me down
But I’m happy and homely and free
Happy, lonely, and free
There’s just one way
I need to be
I took what you said
And I put it on its feet
If this is the day
Just let it beat, like the heart goes
Just because I’m sad
Don’t mean that I’m unhappy
Because I’m a sinner
Don’t mean ain’t a saint
So I stay under my covers
Longing for another
But I’m happy and lonely and free
Where do I count today
I’m closing it down today
Today….
The next day begins
Where the last one had ended
What do I do with a job that can’t be done
I put sand in my pockets
To kind of weigh me down
