State Champion - Help Me Sing lyrics

Some lay flowers on the side of the highway To note the d**h of the ones they loved While other flowers spend their whole lives out on the highway Standing for nothing it's just where they're from And I guess I know in some backwards way that all these Billboards lighting up the back of the day Been slowly inking me down a giant map of the states 'Til I can find somewhere to shack up and unpack all my things I got a swine full of quarters, a telephone If I could only find a minute to talk I got a gold watch ticking with a sailor's mouth I think the hour hand is flicking me off I got a pocketknife and a pocket mirror But it's weird my face don't look quite the same 'Cause I got a half-empty bottle of something Lord It's a half-full bottle of dreams Can you help me sing the one You helped me sing when the day was done? You helped me sing to a great big sun That was setting on some old black couch in my room Can you help me sing the song You helped me sing out on the lawn? You helped me sing to bring up the dawn And bring it back to your mom and daddy's house 'Cause I don't want to sing this one If I've got to sing without you Brother let your hair blow Won't you let your hair blow brave Don't let them tell you that it ain't the same wind That's been making them sacred bandanas wave A Jew on the cross a dew on the moss That's two ways to behave Gas station diner firework shop souvenir Twenty-four hour cum stains on the radio waves I guess I'll figure it out when I'm older For now you call Sal and I'll call Dakota They've got a half-empty bottle of vodka with them I got a half full bottle of optimism And we'll sing the one You helped me sing when the day was done You helped me sing to a great big sun That was setting on some old black couch in my room Can you help me sing the song You helped me sing out on the lawn? You helped me sing to bring up the dawn And bring it back to your mom and daddy's house 'Cause I don't want to sing this one if it's going to make me feel blue About the way things will never be the same again Been feeling red about the places where I laid my hands Last night thought I could save a couple grains of sand From slowly slipping through a south-bound highway ramp But I was wrong So can you help me sing the one You helped me sing when the day was done? You helped me sing to a great big sun That was setting on some old black couch in my room Can you help me sing the song You helped me sing out on the lawn? You helped me sing to bring up the dawn And bring it back to your mom and daddy's house 'Cause I don't want to sing this one if just I've got to sing Don't want to sing this one if I've got to sing without you
