Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been livin' with a curse
Combin' through the pages of my youth
There's a million soggy miles
Soakin' through the soles of my shoes
And I've been stayin' up all night
I don't give a damn to sleep anymore
My eyelids are heavy
But my dreams don't sing like before
[Verse 2]
And I apologize a thousand times for holdin' up the show
I always had the words, but they don't quite know where to go
You said, give me one good reason, now give me twenty more
Well, don't give yourself away to settle someone else's score
[Verse 3]
I got the guiltiest conscience
Listening for a savior on a Saturday night
I got my ear to the ground
You got Easter Sunday in your eyes
[Verse 4]
And I apologize if I seem a little overwhelmed
I'm thirsty, but the holy keep on pissin' in my well
I had a purpose and a song that was true
But I ain't ever had a lick of sense when it comes to you
[Verse 5]
So try to be patient, try to understand
I'm a child tryna do the work of a man
My pockets are empty, I don't own a thing
But I'd take a diamond from the sky and put it in your ring
