back [00:35.18]If I can't tear down these walls I'll slip him through the crack [00:37.70]If that crack ain't big enough I'm sick enough to get committed [00:39.98]Where he's been I ain't been allowed to visit and I miss him [00:43.70]They put me in a submission hold got him living in a hole [00:46.30]Give me the rope pull it back cut him slack--he's getting old [00:49.12] [00:49.86]This cold does nothing for his bones he's shaking [00:52.47]Always put on hold that prison phone's always taken [00:55.31]They put me on a speaker but my voice is breaking up [00:57.88]I'd like to think he caught bits and pieces before the gates got shut [01:00.82]Raise it up [01:01.73]Somebody cover me I'm going in with razor cuts [01:04.44]And something ugly that I know within [01:06.44]Can't afford the luxury of exposing everything [01:08.88]But I've been doing the best that I can (that I can) [01:11.89]I take it day by day just one step at a time [01:14.84]And I don't need a sobriety test to walk the line [01:18.03]Walking on this tightrope with arms open wide [01:20.52]Hoping to find you live and well on the other side [01:23.32]So I could give you this gift as a symbol [01:26.48]When I felt the rope loosen I knew I missed my window [01:29.63]He really did love you you know pat pat [01:31.98]I said "Get your f**king hand off my back" [01:34.34]This is my passage into adulthood and I need not [01:37.83]Smalltalk fingers fishing from a weak spot [01:40.42]I used to dream a lot [01:41.60]In search for meaning in a sleepwalk [01:43.44]The only time I find myself having a deep talk [01:46.10]But now I never sleep 'cause sleep is the cousin of death [01:48.90]One can never rest depending on how up the drugs get [01:52.20]Upset submit me to a blood test [01:54.36]Find no trace of my words reverting back to wait [01:56.99]That wasn't what I meant [01:58.17]My right eye is sunrise the left is sunset [02:01.42]The moonshine ain't got me drunk yet [02:03.78]My tongue's wet for the lunar eclipse [02:06.10]And when you're flat broke ain't nothing you won't do for a fix [02:09.24]It's a beautiful mix of Jesus-Juice on my lips [02:11.83]And words that are stuck so I stirred 'em up with a crucifix [02:14.88]And this is where I found a friend in Christ [02:18.39]But I also found a few spikes and I decided [02:21.44]To use them as pegs on my bike [02:23.18]So you'd have a place to stand when I broke you out of that vice [02:26.25]And now I'm going back to rehab [02:28.06](going going back back to rehab) [02:29.49]I'm going back to rehab [02:31.91]I'm going back to rehab [02:34.66]I'm going back to rehab from I'm a griigle [02:37.75](going going back back to rehab) [02:43.48](going going back back to rehab) [02:48.99]I'm going back as a Dead-Again Christian with a medicine prescription [02:52.13]Yeah I'm a friend of Bill Let-let-let me in [02:54.85]Get me outta this [02:56.94]Hooked up to plugs and wires while the dogs [02:59.17]Sniff for a powdered substance [03:00.70]In a town of judgments with glass-house developments [03:03.47]Cookie-cutter Republican school-book intelligence [03:06.29]They ain't never considered how just one rock [03:09.08]Could crack the whole facade now they call the ski slingshots [03:11.56] [03:12.39]I will not meditate on the sermon [03:15.14]Heaven's gate is burnin' so we self-medicate with bourbon [03:18.16]While their collection plate gets turned into a purse [03:20.76]I've turned into a second-rate person but I'm not the first [03:23.93]This isn't your typical cry for help [03:26.12]I tried to melt [03:26.91]But someone stopped the trickling with a Bible belt [03:29.37]Reminded me of tourniquets and h****n nods [03:31.91]Now that that right there that's one hell of a God [03:34.97]You can't match magic with an addict that's got a mapping compass [03:38.23]In order to find a substance and matchstick that functions [03:41.16]A searching and fearless immoral inventory [03:43.86]'Til every person with a story begins to bore me [03:46.99]I did what I had to do to get [03:49.00]To the place where your face wasn't such a blurry mess [03:51.93]I packed all your favorite promises and words that we kept [03:54.70]You weren't hard to find all it took was 13 steps [03:58.38] [04:07.06]And now I'm going back to rehab [04:12.16]I'm going back to rehab [04:15.00]I'm going back to rehab [04:17.03]I'm going back to rehab I don't drink though [04:20.83]I'm going there to give him cash hear him laugh bring him back [04:23.66]If I can't tear down these walls I'll slip him through the crack [04:26.24]If that crack ain't big enough I'm sick enough to get committed [04:29.01]Where he's been I ain't been allowed to visit and I miss him [04:32.15]Put me in a submission hold got him living in a hole [04:35.01]Give me the rope pull it back cut him slack [04:36.95]He's getting old [04:38.01]This bitter cold does nothing for his brittle bones [04:40.30]He's shaking [04:40.88]Eternally put on hold that prison phone's always taken [04:43.58]Put me on a speaker but my voice is breaking up [04:46.41]I'd like to think he caught bits and pieces before the gates got shut [04:49.47]Raise it up
