lyrics

We're all knelt down at the bully pulpit
For fear of not having anything to do
Where drunk becomes the new sober
And formulaic nights they start anew

Never wanted for much, but tonight
and to occupy my hands with what was right
These bones have been picked and proud and my will is shaking
But at least it's there still, at least it's there

I've got an over/under on my time to die
From a family that never spent a weeknight dry
It could be a non-existent grace, an attempt at saving face, or a narrow minded view of seizing the day
