[My Dad's never cursed in his life, I asked if he smoked he said, "twice"//Well by that standard I'm a God damn failure, I passed blunts the day I married my wife//But I'm a child of God, just in case you forgot, And you cast me out every single chance that you got, And that's your loss not mine, I'll be better than fine, You just missed your shot to meet the unholy divine//Oh what I'd give for just an inch of your peace, 'Cause I wanna fall but I've got bruises on my knees, Oh what I'd give for just an inch of your peace, 'Cause I wanna fall, I wanna be someone that you'd call]
Blake and Lynn, unable to salvage their marriage separate on unsteady terms. Still coping with the past, and feeling lost without her, he moves in with Miles Upshur, an unassuming journalist recently hired to their same company, and begins the long road to acceptance of his pain and understanding of himself. Unbeknownst to him, his new roommate is in a similar boat.
