Heroin

I’m coming home soon
From my trip across the dying state
Where I learned of all the souls that came before
I might stay a while more
Settle down maybe have a kid
You should come back

And if you want to come and get it
Baby we could light it up so

Oh
You got me screaming like
Oh
I’m far from home
Broken bones
All alone in this burning world
Shooting the last of heroin

You should stay that close to Jesus
Keep that bottle at your hand my man
Find a way back to my bed again
Sing me like a bible hymn
We should come back to Arkansas
Trade that body for that can of gin
Like a little piece of heaven
No more candle in the wind

I think I’m gonna go soon
For a trip up to Tahoe lake
Where we stayed the night
Just making all our stories
I’m sorry honey
If you just wanted one and done
But baby
I’m not made that way

Oh
You got me screaming like
Oh
I’m far from home
Broken bones
All alone in this burning world
Shooting the last of heroin

You should stay that close to Jesus
Keep that bottle at your hand my man
Find a way back to my bed again
Sing me like a bible hymn
We should come back to Arkansas
Trade that body for that can of gin
Like a little piece of heaven
No more candle in the wind

Oh
You got me screaming like
Oh
I’m far from home
Broken bones
All alone in this burning world
Shooting the last of heroin

You should stay that close to Jesus
Keep that bottle at your hand my man
Find a way back to my bed again
Sing me like a bible hymn
We should come back to Arkansas
Trade that body for that can of gin
Like a little piece of heaven
No more candle in the wind
