No one needs to tell me how to g-g-get down
But won't somebody show me how to get back up
I thought about killing my landlord but he was pretty nice
Instead I paid my rent on time as often as I could
I've been making strange friends in the desert
Yeah they love Jesus and America too.
It ain't as bad as it sounds, someday I'll explain it to you
INTRO
It's not that I mind sleeping alone in the grass
It's just that I've been dreaming since well maybe I ain't woke up yet
But nothing's been quite the same since you shot yourself
I don't know if you believe in ghosts I'd hope you'd haunt me if you were one
I've been trying not to steal from everybody I know
But so far that's impossible
But here in the desert somehow I hope that someday it won't
Be that way for me
No it won't be that way for me anymore
