Tattoo

Give me a tattoo for my lover
So I can see her everyday
Carve her name into my arm skin
So she don't ever wash away

'Cause I ain't saying that I'm leaving
Since I might not make it home
And I ain't saying I don't love you anymore
Sometimes, I want to watch you burn

And tell my brother he's a good man
A better one than I'll ever be
'Cause it's the time of year when
I'm missing all my old friends
The dead and gone, they don't talk to me

But I ain't saying that I'm lonesome
It's just I'm feeling all alone
Like heaven's so far above me
And like hell ain't so far below

Give me a tattoo for my lover
So I can see her everyday
