Drive-By Truckers - A Blessing And A Curse lyrics

When it all comes down There'll be nothing left to catch you but ground It's calling your name and filling your head With delusions of glory Is that how you're gonna write your story? Down in your time as a high-flying flame out? s**ing on what's left of your trust fund? s**ing on the end of a shot gun? But there's more here than meets the eye The real story is under the surface We're all so in love with the artifice We don't dare look too close It's a blessing and a curse Watch out, Eugene, you don't make things worse Wild dreams come true, what to do then? Confusion and glory A man's got to think it all through Got to do what you got to do It's itching to conquer and take you Itching to make a mistake out of you It's a blessing and a curse I wish it didn't hurt so much I wish it didn't hurt so much I wish it didn't hurt so much
