lyrics

Hide your booze in the toilet tank
A pack of smoke for rainy days
and hope your wife collects your thrown out songs
I can't remember much these days
It's alcohol or faulty genes,
Sometimes I forget that I'm twenty-shit years old
And I ain't done, at least not yet
So play your songs in a different key
And hope that there's a god that sees
You're trying, even though you know there ain't.
The option held to run away
Was gone the second you heard her say
"I will" outside of that holy Nashville stage
Force yourself to be brave

Suck it up old friend
We're nowhere near the end
At this point there ain't anyone to hold you down

The rats are having children now
I never knew I could be so proud
The boys are shining brighter than the sun
So drink a shot and smoke a bowl
for the ones we used to think were old
But now we see they're the ones who got it done
They're younger now than anyone
Well I'll crush my fears like a shotgunned beer
Wear my doubt like a shining bandoleer
To intimidate the ones who seek my end
Now's the time to quit your job
Use your voice as a divining rod
and spit in the face of those who wish you dead
Off with their heads

Suck it up old friend
We're nowhere near the end
At this point there ain't anyone to hold you down

I'll crush my fears like a shotgunned beer
