[Intro]
Said I'm back, back
Yeah you write, right
Go to sleep in the morning
Wake at night, night
I said I'm back, back
Yeah you write, right
Go to sleep in the morning
Wake at night
[Hook x2]
I ain't got no time to waste I've been wasted
Praying for sun light to break but the day is in
Twilight I'm wide awake getting faded
One bu*terfly pull the iron out the maiden
[Verse 1]
My life story just the irony you blending in
The black cowboy who's really just an indian
Outcast citizen, out for cash and dividends
Bread cheese and bank I'm just really tryin' to save my skin
And take care of kin plus my dearest friends
Who gave me bread or a bed when I had no ins
Or stole the shovel when I went to dig my grave again
And asked me where my album's at and when I'll play again
[Hook x2]
[Verse 2]
I've been broken hearted, I've broken hearts
Can't tell the treasure from the trash when it gets too dark
I've been torn apart, but I've been mended back
With a needle and a thread and an nicotine patch
Getting clean hoping nothing pushes me to relapse
Like watching dreams pa** and chasing greener gra**
You're better off crying right into that empty gla**
So sick of being depressed this should'nt make me laugh
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3]
I'm back, back
Yeah you write, right
Go to sleep in the morning
Wake at night, night
Said I'm back, back
Yeah you write, right
Go to sleep in the morning
Wake at night, night
Stay up all night and I songwrite
Of my whole life and where it's gone right
Where it's gone wrong and where I'll fix it all
And where I wake up and I feel it in a crystal ball
[Hook x2]
[Outro]
Yeah pull the iron out the maiden
Smoke a bu*terfly and fall where the days end
Pull the iron out the maiden
bu*terflies in my stomach as the day is in
