We Were Young

You would text a quarter past ten
To let me know you were almost ready
I’d cast a stone at your window pane
And be on the road a couple minutes later
The windows down and high beam headlights,
Breath it in honey, this town is ours
Oh, how I miss those nights, when we would steal my daddy’s Chevy
At night we parked by the top of the hill
The engine off and the radio on
We rolled some cigarettes run off the mill
Smoked them anyways, we were young
And here we are, Mulholland Drive
And at our feet, the city skyline
Like a mirror pointed at the stars,
All the streetlights are shining so bright
Feel the smoke, fill your lungs
Then you blow it out, and all the pain is gone
Oh, how I miss those nights, when you and I would steal my daddy’s Chevy
At night we parked by the top of the hill
The engine off and the radio on
We rolled some cigarettes run off the mill
Smoked them anyways, we were young
There are many things that I’m not very proud of,
But these nights, I never will take back.
At night we parked by the top of the hill
The engine off and the radio on
We rolled some cigarettes run off the mill

Two Tone Blues

My baby’s off with another guy, I know those eyes ain’t good at lying. She left me here like a stained suit, or like an ol’ pair of two tone shoes. But now that I’m honest with myself, she was nothing
but a whole in my pocket where my change fell right through
And I’m better off now that she’s far away.
Yeah, I’m a fool,
I’ll sing it loud and proud. I’m black and blue,
But I’m not beaten down.
Mary left last Saturday, she drove away on a Mercedes Benz.
I guess she went for the money trend instead of “settling” for a better friend Now I’m left without here but better by myself
Cause I can spend all my loot drinking booze.
And I’m better off now that she’s far away.
Yeah, I’m a fool,
I’ll sing it loud and proud. I’m black and blue,
But I’m not beaten down.

Bourbon And Coke

You left me at the bottom of the bottle
My jacket to my shoes, smelling like Marlboro
I wasn’t solo…
Jack was there to drown my sorrows
I wasn’t solo, no.
When you packed your polka dots and walked through that door
When you turned that key,
Jack brought me back on my feet
It was Bourbon And Coke,
That’s who I sold my soul to.
Bourbon And Coke
It’s my spirit, it’s my go to.
I felt like dropping by the way side,
When you left that night without leaving a message.
Over the barrel,
Jack was much my only fellow
I was feeling feeble,
when you grabbed your rags and packed up your bags
When you turned that key,
Jack brought me back on my feet
It was Bourbon And Coke,
That’s who I sold my soul to.
Bourbon And Coke
When I needed someone to reach out to.
… When I needed someone to lean on.
One day I found myself alone with an empty glass
I thought I had a friend who’d stay with me through every rough patch.
Turned out that he was there to bring me down with him.
And only got me sinking deeper down with ever drink.

Slide Off The Map

Well goodbye my lover, I know this might seem I’m coming out of the blue
This thought has troubled my head for a while, and it’s time for the truth
Even though I still love you, the hour has come for me to move on
So don’t take it personal, cause it’s not about you, so…
Move on, be strong, let go.
Move on, for that’s what I’ll do.
This is the one thing that I cannot ignore
It’s just may life long task that needs to be done
It’s my wandering lust that’ll never be gone
So I’m sliding off the map,
Cause it’s all that I’ve ever known, so…
Move on, be strong, let go.
Move on, for that’s what I’ll do.
So I’m sliding off the map tonight
Cause it’s the only thing that seems to be right.
Move on, be strong, let go.
Move on, for that’s what I’ll do.
