Way Behind

[Verse 1]
It used to be the east side
That drug me down too far
I wallowed in my bad moves
And hollered in the dark

[Verse 2]
Spent all my time dyin'
And losin' ev'ry thought
Of a precious tiny hand
Holdin' on and turnin' cold

[Chorus: Malcolm Holcombe, Jared Tyler, Both]
Beatin' up ol memories
Of never good enough
Leavin' all the laughter
And your kindness way behind
Way behind

[Verse 3]
It used to be the squandered
Dollars from your sweat
And the last words that i heard
Goin' out the door you said

[Verse 4]
Now all the neighbors all remember
The fancy funeral homes
That i never set a foot in
To comfort anyone

[Chorus: Malcolm Holcombe, Jared Tyler, Both]
Beatin' up ol memories
Of never good enough
Leavin' all the laughter
And your kindness way behind
Way behind

[Verse 5]
Oh Lord have mercy now and then
When shadows follow clouds
Too heavy with my tears
To hold back even now

[Chorus: Malcolm Holcombe, Jared Tyler, Both]
Beatin' up ol memories
Of never good enough
Leavin' all the laughter
And your kindness way behind
Way behind

[Verse 6 (Not on record)]
You can listen to the stories
Gettin' thru another day
Without you without you
In the blues
