Every Time I Die
Typical Miracle
I need a new rock bottom
I've got to find a beloved back alley
I'm bored as hell in Sodom
And Eden is just another dry county
The local haunts have been blessed
All their spirits dispossessed
Even our bed is the second best
And the end isn't near, it is now
These drugs won't even bring me down
I want to dance, but I don't hear a sound
You can't fuck when your friends are around
But my slow death drew a crowd
You can't take two sins off of one ox
Pile them on because she won't spare the rod
You don't drown faster the deeper you sink
So you best make peace and take in the sea
Nurse that stray black dog
Stay low
Keep digging
Divine light continued to shine
For so long that the battery died
And no spark could be seen in my eyes
So it waved death down
The rapture came and it went
While my faith was treading cement
I'm hell bound, but I'm heaven sent
So I'm lifted back into the ground
I've ascended back into the ground
Oh, there was whiskey in the devil's blood
And there was blood in my cup
So I will make me a better grave
I will find my own way
