I have lived a life of sorrow Struggled through many days of pain Ain't felt her warmth on a winter mornin' Since she left me a drownin' in my shame I'm a lyin' man of my word Drunken love is sober sin This life of lies sent her a walkin' Into the arms of another man On Deaf Ears, my prayers have fallen And there's no one to hear me cry A broken soul, a dead man walkin' But, ain't no room for me in the sky I sit and stare at an empty closet Where all her robes, they used to hang A hollow hole and doors left open Seems it and me are one and the same I stand over my empty vessel Black liquor bag tied over his eyes Prescription sleep in his left hand Shell of relief landed to his right On Deaf Ears, my prayers have fallen And there's no one to hear me cry In my last hour, I've finally broken But, ain't no room for me in the sky Ain't no room for me in the sky
