Drunk like a pile of roaches
Stoned like I'm smoking the ashes
How long has it been since I've told you my sins
In a church with a bishop from aspen
Sober like the bottom of the bottle
Writing down my wrongs like a novel
How long will it take til my skin starts to shake
Take a swig but I can't seem to swallow
Lord don't leave me
Cause tonight isn't easy
Seems all my troubles
Show up when I'm sleeping
Feeling out of tomorrows
Like Sunday night sorrow
Lord, it's getting harder
Lead me down to the water
Cold like a winter time whisper
Filling my bones up with shivers
I know it's been long so I'm singing this song
While I'm nursing my bourbon and bitters
Lonely like the moon when it's waning
Sad like the stars when they're fading
I'm feeling the end and I've missed you my friend
Can you stay a little longer this evening?
Lord don't leave me
Cause tonight isn't easy
Seems all my troubles
Show up when I'm sleeping
Feeling out of tomorrows
Like Sunday night sorrow
Lord, it's getting harder
Lead me down to the water
Let me down gentle
My mind's going mental
I'm two pills away from insane
Cause something's not working
And see I'm done searching
Lord, can you please send the rain?
Again, and again, and again?
Lord don't leave me
Cause tonight isn't easy
Seems all my troubles
Show up when I'm sleeping
Feeling out of tomorrows
Like Sunday night sorrow
Lord, it's getting harder
Lead me down to the water
