No Moon On The Water - Magnolia Electric Co.

No moon on the water

The way I’m acting it’s no wonder

The blues come and I can’t outrun ‘em

I ain’t foolin' me

I ain’t foolin' no one

I have to work hard to suffer alone

I have to work hard to be so alone

Don’t like half of who I’ve been

But I’ve kept my promises to all of them

Tie my wings behind my back

Cut out my eyes and baby fill ‘em with lead

Cut off my head and put the black mule’s there

And trade my heart for a fire

Fill my bones with the grey wolf’s ghost

Face us to the shore

Give me one single reason to live

To try anymore

And it don’t have to be good

It don’t have to be good

It don’t have to be good
