lyrics

Claws In Me

I sat down with the intention of
writing a sad, sad song
I’ll tell you to be honest it
didn’t take me very long
I lined up all my lonely like
beer cans I might shoot off of a fence
turned ‘em over, spun ‘em ‘round
and still they didn’t make a bit of sense
I stacked up all my sorrows ’til
they piled up to the ceiling, out the door

breaking’s all my heart is useful for

feeling lonesome feelings
much better than no feelings left to feel
‘cause warm and sad is better than
cold and losing track of what is real
‘cause when we’re feeling lonely we
lose sight of all those things that might
could be
broken hearts and spirits
eyes that strain and stare but fail to see

I know all this and still
this melancholy’s got it’s claws in me
