I'm looking for experience in the things that make me lonely
To keep my mother up at night, and make my loved ones worry
About the path I've chose, and our fragile mental state
They're all worried I might snap, and they're wondering if I'm crazy

Now I've never been the one to lie awake at night
But now a days in bed when my mind starts to unwind
Thinkin' about the months ahead and all my love has searched for
And I'm worried that I'm losing all the things that I have worked for

Roll mе slowly
Roll me fast against the wave
Bеcause we're headed east
And I'm carrying my lonely
Heart in a broken cage

Morning's getting rough at times, it takes a little whiskey
Because out here on the trail, its all pretty painted ladies
Climb up on your knee, and they'll ask for all your stories
To make you forget about the bloodshed and the glory

Roll me slowly
Roll me fast against the wave
Because we're headed east
And I'm carrying my lonely
Heart in a broken cage
Looking at old friends, getting married having babies
Crawled inside my head, when I started believing maybe
There's better ways to do this, can't remember your birthday
But I'll leave every dive bar from here to Missouri

Roll me slowly
Roll me fast against the wave
Because we're headed east
And I'm carrying my lonely
Heart in a broken cage

One big white light going off in my head
And I start wondering if it's something different now and then
Living fourty-two life times alone in my head
Am I drowning in this sorrow, or maybe I am dead
