Lyrics
I sink back into the morning
Mind’s alone and numb

I tell her ‘bout my dream

But never where it’s from

I wonder if she sees
All that i have done
The Night’s words collide within

My tool a sharpest tongue

Rattle walls of darkness

Thumbnail stick and leave
Watching as the coin flips

A flick before the heave
Lying by myself

Remembering is strange

She’d throw a nickel in my well
And surely ask for change

I fall asleep with whiskey
hangin on my breath
new light now

always feels the same
wake up in mornin
working on a fifth
Hoping at the bottom is
where I forget your name

Rattle walls of darkness
Thumbnail stick and leave
Watching as the coin flips
A flick before the heave
Lying by myself
Remembering is strange
She’d throw a nickel in my well
And surely ask for change

My one sided pleas

must drive you insane
I don’t know what more

I could bring

I’d lay myself down
if it would help prove

words don’t mean
a god damn thing

Rattle walls of darkness

Thumbnail stick and leave
Watching as the coin flips

A flick before the heave
Lying by myself

Remembering is strange
She’d throw a nickel in my well
And surely ask for change
