Lyrics

Decayin' With the Boys

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I ain't afraid of the dark

I ain't worried about the savages loose in the night

But you show me the things I've done

And girl you know I get the chills all down my crooked spine

Kill the lights

I've seen too much

If so below, then as above

Lord knows I've seen enough

It's crystal clear and uglier than I thought

Desperate and lonely juggernauts

Illuminate the filth with the glow of your righteous heart

Shine a light upon the world

And i'll scurry back to the dark

Lights on, rats out

Somebody turn on the light, keep the rest down

The uppers lower me into the hive

The lights are low us weeds come alive

Downers pick me up into the ditch

I cannot scratch this never-ending itch

Salvation is a hell of a thing

Pull the dust up over your eyes

I don't believe I'll have a revelation with all these secrets of mine

And if I ever have a holy vision

It's going to be two at a time

I got so much soul in me that I'm barely alive

I've been down and out for so long baby I can't be revived

I ain't afraid to be long lost

I ain't bothered by the silence, the cold, or the roads that stretch for miles

But you show me the man I've become

And girl you know I want to tie up a rope and crack my crooked spine

Kill the lights

I've seen too much
