lyrics

In cold blood I relay my savage sins,
Through kindness and virtue I cannot speak against
The man I was ain't who I am, or at least I keep him under wraps
As well as I can to function as a man

Now it's too nice a day to be pissin on it
We can both agree it would be me the first one to admit
For once at least half of my head is beginning to make sense
I feel so alone just sittin' inside o'me

Supposedly my stinkin' thoughts been wastin' our time
I think my problem was simply thinkin' in the first place
Oh, things could go so much better if I could turn off my head
Somehow settle for this here lingerin' radio
Along this low, long, lone ramblin' road

Well they only scratched the surface 'til I bled
And the histories of bleeding men I walked out with in my hand
Drip droppin' blood I reached out for the only thing I loved
Someone else's cigarettes and a bottle o'debt

Yeah that's the way my stinkin' thoughts been wastin' our time
I knew my problem wasn't really drinkin' in the first place
My love for taste testing every little thing would surely be the death of me
If only somebody didn't first beat me to the punch
On this low, long, lone ramblin' road

Who knows how long it took for the day to dawn?
Though there seems to be these little subtleties that prove to me he's not far gone
There's an underlying current that could anytime become riptide
Hope my hitch moors us securely to the shore

Well, all these things I ever said and done add up to me
It don't puzzle me so much anymore when I think about him
Well, I should say it doesn't bother me until he rears his ugly stick
He starts dancin' jigs and reels inside my head

And whose nose, how long, he'll stick around before I shoot him down
I'm certainly always lookin' forward to the next trip
Oh things we seen coulda been so much worse if I didn't have the lessons first
And some tips and tricks to handle all the thirst
On this low, long, lone ramblin' road
On this low, long, lone ramblin' road
