lyrics

let's be so still we go through withdrawal denial.
let's eat some pills and just go to sleep for a while.

i will name my son jesse, blessed be.
i'm gonna learn him somethin

give up before you give out.
and sit up before you spin out
and if yr lucky, you might make it out alive.

she's drunk on merlot.
she only knows because i told her so.
yes i'm lucky to know, and i will make peace before i go.

i will name his brother eli. and when he's knee-high
i'm gonna learn him something

give up before you give out.
and sit up before you spin out
and if yr lucky, you might make it out alive.

now let's be honest, every cigarette has a lighting and smoking side.
i might be haunted, but i do alrite when it's people-time.

i will name my daughter fay wray
and stay the hell out of her way.
maybe she'll learn me somethin.
