Two Summers

I have widowed every woman

From the waitress to the queen

Been in and out of wedlocks with an exoskeleton key

I may perish unwept but at least I'll never swing

I ain't in your crystal ball

You won't remember me but you'll remember our song

You got premonitions, talked to spirits, they approved

That just might mean you're lying or them spirits lied to you

Nothing more is perfect, yeah, but nothing less will do

I ain't in your crystal ball

You looked at what the light shined on

Not where it's shining from, didn't you?

You find what you need only when you need to find it

Yea, I did it too

I knew I was alive because I used to want to die but not anymore

Now I'm trying to be but old hearts won't let me sleep

I hear them in the floor

Standing at the altar with your leather jacket on

Fucked up on some new pills

Got you feeling twenty-one

My friends are always pissed off

All your friends dance just for fun

I ain't in your crystal ball

I won't be here for that hangover

But I'll come running to raise a glass

Where'd I get my nerve?

I thought you'd never ask

We clean the slate just to write mistakes

An old flame you can't blow out

You filled the cup, you picked me up

Now you've got to put me down
