Money pressing on my mind
To raise my kid above the bread line
Wrong and right, I walked the wind
I walk alone with hollow eyes
And there's a wolf in every tree
Trying to steal my dignity
And compromise made me a man
But not the man that I should be
And once I thought
The things that I now doubt
You just don't want
The world to find you out
I'm angry and empty
And I don't know why
I'm aching and lonesome
And I don't know why
Under vacant sky
Drinking communion wine
Abjected to a thousand sins
The more I taste the more I need
Each day it takes a little more
To drown the devils out of me
I watch my daughter lying silently
And I pray she don't take after me
Will I pay for things I've done
In the lives of ones I love?
Is it all coming back to me?
And years inside you loose
And they don't look back
Like lovers you cast off
Along the track
I'm angry and empty
And I don't know why
I'm aching and lonesome
And I don't know why
Under vacant sky
Drinking communion wine
Don't know why
I don't know why
And all these lonesome conversations
Nothing moves me anymore
Just take me home, just take me home
I'm angry and empty
And I don't know why
I'm aching and lonesome
And I don't know why
I'm sad, disconnected
And I don't know why
Under vacant sky
Under vacant sky
This disconnected night
This disconnected night
This disconnected night
This disconnected night
Drinking communion wine
