Crystal 04:28
I know things are gettin harder And I know the days seem longer But I know at the end I'll see you And I ain't afraid of whats out there Lord knows I've been sayin' my goddamn prayers My heart weeps, but not for you Cuz you're stronger than crystal darling You shine so bright even when you're fallin' Twisting lights faintly plaster the wall And your sharper than the shards on the ground You glow so hot even as you come down Cut me, burn me, baby I don't care And I know you can stand on your own Don't need me to correct your tone Laugh and act like, we're not already grown I know we get depressed Put my head on your chest Carry the best twigs straight to your nest I know things are getting softer And I know the world moves faster But that's the sooner I'm back in bed with you And I'm afraid of the pain that will come Of my desire to go numb My heart weeps but not from you Cuz you're stronger than crystal darlin' You shine so bright even when you're fallin' Twisting lights faintly plaster the wall And your sharper than shards on the ground Glow so hot even as you come down Cut me burn me baby, I don't care Cuz I know you can stand on your own, Don't need me to correct your tone Laugh and act like, we're not already grown I know we get depressed Put my head on your chest Carry the best twigs straight to your nest Cuz you're stronger than crystal darlin' You shine so bright even when you're fallin' Twisting lights faintly plaster the wall And your sharper than shards on the ground Glow so hot even as you come down Cut me, burn me, baby I don't care

Missouri 03:21
Cute long-haired eight-year old boy turned to a tacit, bald decoy "Hey, Pa this is the best one yet switched around, turned around my mindset" They'll say anything they can, make you worship and raise those hands Take you out on the town, bring ya back and tell you to bow down So I'm rollin' on over Missouri And I'm rollin' on over I went crazy, ripped the scabs off my knees, I went crazy askin "why god me?" Suppose I ain't like them other boys, so they carved me my own damn pedestal Extolled my voice, a trojan horse for their words "Why the hell we goin' to hell if we don't dig girls?" And I'm rollin' on over Missouri And I'm rollin' on over Cuz I am a man now, and I know I'm all fucked up But I can stand now, and I know I can fuck you up Oh boy, I'm outta control, I can't sleep, can't eat or see outta this hole God taste a hell of a lot like whiskey, oh lord washeth away my wicked dreams Oh boy, that ain't God, that's a bottle of Beam Then I guess the Devil's the one that's been helping me So I'm rollin' on over Missouri And I'm rollin' on over

If all my heart's in Texas, won't you take me to the one I love Won't you help me to the one I love, my sweet darlin' All my brains are up north, can I keep them there a while You can toss them in a big ole pile, my sweet darlin' But I'll keep my lungs, got to have me a little fun Smoking cigarettes in the sun, like I've got somethin' to say Cuz I'd sell the last of me just to be taken seriously I'd sell the last of me to swim again in your sea Sell the last of me You can take my tongue, won't have to taste to get drunk Toss it in your daddy's trunk and drive away But please do not take my ears, for then I'd be truly alone Might as well pick out my headstone and cry over bones And you'll never take my wit, no that's something I'll stick with I'd fight for it in a big bloody pit, its dying with me Cuz I'd sell the last of me just to be taken seriously I'd sell the last of me to swim again in your sea Sell the last of me If all my hearts in Austin, won't you take me to one I love Won't you help me to the one I love, my sweet darlin' credits

Snow's been seepin' in these calf skin boots But this Kentucky bourbon's got us warm and loose Rice and tomato soup to feed our soul Plus the doctor's pills to feel in control But where do we go from here Was in a different State, but the same damn place all last year And I don't know, I don't know, I don't know I can't grow, I can't grow Been gnawin' on the rawest bit of my thumb Been sober all morning, but I'm still numb Everyday I pray for tomorrow And everyday you pray I don't let go But where do we go from here Was in a different State, but the same damn place all last year And I don't know, I don't know, I don't know I can't grow, I can't grow But where do we go from here Was in a different State, but the same damn place all last year And I don't know, I don't know, I don't know I can't grow, I can't grow

Your cheatin' heart will make you weep You'll cry and cry and try to sleep But sleep won't come The whole night through Your cheatin' heart will tell on you When tears come down like fallin' rain You'll toss around and call my name You'll walk the floor the way I do Your cheatin' heart will tell on you Your cheatin' heart will pine someday And crave the love you threw away The time will come when you'll be blue Your cheatin' heart will tell on you When tears come down like fallin' rain You'll toss around and call my name You'll walk the floor the way I do Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
