lyrics
I woke up still drunk on a screened in back porch
where i thought of how much i hate thinking about divorce
lost in conversation
whatever feels like you again
then twelve beers later i thought he was gonna cry
said "where did all that beauty go while i was doing time?"
beauty comes to those who sit
beauty left while i was sleeping in
we read the future out the palm of your hand
you were turned from a monument to a backwoods man
and all of the compliments you don't understand
left us drunk in a soccer field at 4 a.m.
and i wonder if i look like him
i woke up still young to a new record label
and i thought what i'd done just to make it all tamable
in all those compliments i don't understand
that left me in a soccer field at your command
till two drinks later
i left like a father
just to act like nothing happens
but it does
and even in the winter
with my eye on the calendar
i wonder if i look like him
i woke up still strung out from the night before
so i watched what i sung for the rest of that tour
now we're afraid of what exists
we used to belong to churches
there's no use in hiding the fact sometimes i get bored
when i hate thinking how much i hate thinking of how i'm yours
i have not come back down since
where i thought of how much i hate thinking about divorce
lost in conversation
whatever feels like you again
then twelve beers later i thought he was gonna cry
said "where did all that beauty go while i was doing time?"
beauty comes to those who sit
beauty left while i was sleeping in
we read the future out the palm of your hand
you were turned from a monument to a backwoods man
and all of the compliments you don't understand
left us drunk in a soccer field at 4 a.m.
and i wonder if i look like him
i woke up still young to a new record label
and i thought what i'd done just to make it all tamable
in all those compliments i don't understand
that left me in a soccer field at your command
till two drinks later
i left like a father
just to act like nothing happens
but it does
and even in the winter
with my eye on the calendar
i wonder if i look like him
i woke up still strung out from the night before
so i watched what i sung for the rest of that tour
now we're afraid of what exists
we used to belong to churches
there's no use in hiding the fact sometimes i get bored
when i hate thinking how much i hate thinking of how i'm yours
i have not come back down since
