LYRICS:
Surrounded by garbage
Perched on a stool
I’ll try to write songs that
Aren’t about you
The birds are extra loud
The sky is really blue
Well that’s enough creating for now,
It’s Time to text in on you again
3 glasses in of whatever rot gut
And I’m once again
Deep in your mud
3 glasses in of whatever this swill
I’m just tryin to drown you out
Your voice was once velvet,
Grazing upon my ear
you laugh through your window
What makes me stand here?
High enough to see you, upon this cinderblock
Sinkin’ in the moonlit grass
Deep into your mud again
3 glasses in of whatever rot gut
And I’m once again
Deep in your mud
3 glasses in of whatever this swill
I’m just tryin to drown you out
Take all this attention, as a compliment
You won’t notice me
At your next private event
Take all this attention, as a love note
I promise to be here, even when you go……
Even when you go, I promise to be here when you go
I’ll never leave your side, especially when you go
Per favore, vai via, tia mo. Per favore vai via tia mo, tia mo, tia mo, tia mo, tia mo (fyi the English translation is “please go away, I love you”)
The rain may let up soon
Drops drumming through my ears
You say that I’m crazy
I simply want to be here for you
I promise to be as quiet as a mouse
As I exit my car,
Right outside your house
3 glasses in of whatever rot gut
And I’m once again
Deep in your mud
3 glasses in of whatever this swill
I’m just tryin to drown you out
