Cover Me In Diamonds

God covered me in diamonds

Just to see if I give a shit ‘bout anything at all in this world

He laid his finger on me

And blessed me with everything I could ever want and will ever need

What do you get when you've had it all

Not even a stumble or a fall

Dust Bunny Symphony

When I got out of bed today my brain was on the floor

But not all of it 

But just enough to make my head sore 

I kicked it underneath the couch, with all of coopers toys

But not all of them 

But just the ones that he ignores 

I, I don't wanna hurt nobody

But I, I can feel the pattern starting

I, I don't wanna hurt nobody

But I, I can feel the pattern starting

Spun around the backyard til it all came crashing down

And  I'm not over it 

Saw your face full of solid ground

I fell into a chair I broke a couple months ago

I've yet to fix it

I Hope i'm not a careless soul

I, I don't wanna hurt nobody

But I, I can feel the pattern starting

I, I don't wanna hurt nobody

But I, I can feel the pattern starting

Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can.

Your beauty is beyond compare with flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring, your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene.

He talks about you in his sleep and there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
But I can easily understand how you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene.

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can.

You could have your choice of men but I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you, my happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene.

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can.

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene

Afterthought

Well honey tell me 

You'd throw me away

That you sold me away and I lost you again

Well honey why did i treat you this way 

Like i'm lost in a haze and i lost you again

 

Take away my eyes

So that i realize i'm all alone

Ill say sorry til i cry

Makes no difference when i'm all alone

 

Well honey tell me if you’d feel the same

If we trade all our pain would i lose you again

Well honey if were to afraid that were lights in a cave 

And i lost you again

 

Take away my eyes

So that i realize i'm all alone

Ill say sorry til i cry

Makes no difference when i'm all alone

 

I'm falling up

Im failing in

I gave it up

The way im supposed to

I'm holding on

To barely fall from the ground

I'm falling up

Im failing in

I gave it up

The way im supposed to

I'm holding on

To barely fall from the ground

Castes

I’m ‘gon show the whole world who I feel like today

Everybody get, and get up out my way

 

Was it something

Get it out my hair 

Was it something

I haven't finished yet

Was it something

Stuck inside my head 

Was it something

Was it something

Left unsaid

 

I got something I need to get off my chest

You can still get stabbed if you’re wearing that bulletproof vest

 

Was it something

Get it out my hair 

Was it something

I haven't finished yet

Was it something

Stuck inside my head 

Was it something

Was it something

Left unsaid

 

Left unsaid

 

Was it something

Get it out my hair 

Was it something

I haven't finished yet

Was it something

Stuck inside my head 

Was it something

Was it something

Left unsaid

i hate my dream job

Oh I can't wait to settle in to my dead end job

Where everybodies happy and the coffee is hot

I must've missed that powerpoint or email I lost

Cuz everybody seems to get something I have not

Meet me at the watercooler give me the scoop

How is it all you folks live your lives like you do 

Oh no no im not tryna be rude be a prude or intrude 

It's just that I would much prefer a lake to a pool

 

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

 

I'll get home and drink maybe a brewski or two

Lay back in my la-z-boy 

Spark a legal doob

The ants are bustlin down there, I admire the view

From my floor to ceiling window to a city that doesn't move

 

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

 

I wake up in the morning with my head on the floor

I guess I didn't drink enough, next time i'll try more

I button up, and tie my tie then head for the door

Maybe this coming friday i'll try quitting once more

 

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

One day i'll clock out

Secretary says “see you tomorrow”

Stand still traffic, rush hour

Home to this uptown penthouse alone

Nothing Hurts

Heaven sent the father to you

Listen when you can

I think I found 

But I can't be for sure

A little good to you 

 

Heaven sent me over to you

I think of living again

I've been thinking

I miss sipping

I can't wait for you

 

Boys will be boys 

And nothing will hurt

See how the light will go on

Every which way 

I think im enough

Think how the light will go on

 

Wake up thinking

“I can't believe it”

My arms are left somewhere

Out of state and lost in Volusia

Thinking back to you

Seems like yesterday

I think I found

Thinking id  beg for you

I will walk

And leave my head high

Lead my head for change, change yeah

 

Some people cry then nothing will hurt

See how the light will go on 

Toss and turn 

And think of a will 

See how the light will go on

Boys will be boys and nothing will hurt

See how the light will go on

Toss and turn and think of a will

Thinking nothing will go wrong

Beach Death

Never one to swim far

She’d keep her toes in the sand

Now she’s in up over her head

Pray for a line back to land

Bible belt tied ‘round her waist

Helps her sink not swim

Floating with the cast out waste

And then the tide rolls in

 

Tidal wave, tidal wave

Save me

Tidal wave, tidal wave

Chain me

Tidal wave, tidal wave

Bathe me

Tidal wave, tidal wave 

Drain

 

Love love my arteries

Holy water fills my lungs

There was something I could say

But the salt dried my tongue

Should've left my jacket on

Should've let myself move on 

Now i'm cold and soaking wet

Better off myself I guess now
