I am the rube that
You knew to be true
And now I know you done me wrong
I suddenly see that
I'll sleep me a remedy
'Cause you sure done me wrong
I will dance in the ruins
Of stories you told
You know I won't let it go
I'll weep all the good tears
As I burn the bridge
To light my way
It's way too late to prove me wrong
Walking me through the big door
Choosing to live the big life
Smelling like war
I will roll up the coastline
And rise and drown the unmoored
Now that I'm free
I will call out the lightning
To rise and burn the unmade
I know that you drink on the run
I know that you're trying to get clean
And then you come home
And brand new promises
Float up the stair and out through the window into the air
Take the stage
Draw your gun
That will show everyone
Kiss the bride so they can see
Bring on the flame
As we count down the hours
I'll stretch out my last remedy
I know that you drink on the run
I know that you're trying to get clean
And then you come home
And brand new promises
Float up the stair and out through the window into the air
