Vodka and a Fight - Possessed By Paul James

Watching my cover

On my faintest bed

No one beside the bed

No one to make me scared

That’s just you in the mirror

That’s just you with the smoking gun

That’s just me on the floor

Paying for the things I’ve done

Go ahead, crucify the only innocent man

Go ahead and justify all the hate you have

All the hate you can’t throw on to another man

Even though it’s not fair

Why in the world do all the bravest men come so ill-prepared?

I get up, dust off the, the glass and the shattered bone

I find my happy place

No man, I don’t!

And I see that they don’t look much better than you or I

Throw me down the wishing well and you can hear, oh, the penny

All the Lincoln pennies crying

Take a good look and you will see something new outside your window

It’s not the thing that you wanted it to be, but that’s alright,

I bet you didn’t even know

Go ahead and take a look, it might be the last one you get

As for me I’m much too simple to take that, take that bet

Went down in a sleepy town, in the Florida sun

My father’s on his knees

And he’s praying to Christian

Lay down your arms

Open them up so wide and kiss all the baby boys and girls

And say goodnight

Go ahead, take a good look, it might be, oh, the last one you get

Cuz' everything’s so damn similar, ain’t nothing left in these heavens

Go ahead and say what you mean, cuz' I won’t be here tomorrow

Lost up in my own mind, I gotta laugh from the sorrow

He-he-he-he-ho
