GOD'S OWN COUNTRY (2017)

v1:

labored breaths and bed sores

sing it to me all day long

when the aching sound of silence

used to be our favorite song

you and me against the world

you were my man and i your girl

we had nothing except each other

you were my whole world

but then the day came 

and you were up and gone

chorus:

i still call home that house in nebraska

where we found each other on a dirty mattress on the second floor

where the world was empty

save you and i

where you came and i laughed, and we left, and i cried

where you told me even if we died tonight, that i’d die yours

v2:

these dirt roads are empty

the ones we paved ourselves

your mama calls me sometimes

to see if i’m doing well

and i lie to her 

and say that i’m doing fine

when really i’d kill myself

to hold you one more time

and it hurts to miss you

but it’s worse to know

that i’m the reason

you won’t come home

chorus:

but i still call home that house in nebraska

where we found each other on a dirty mattress on the second floor

where the world was empty

save you and i

where you came and i laughed, and we left, and i cried

where you told me even if we died tonight, that i’d die yours

outtro:

you know, i still wait at the edge of town

praying straight to god that maybe, you’ll come back around

i cry every day, and the bottles make it worse

cause you were the only one i was never scared to tell i hurt

and i found photographs of our school, on the day we met

i thought that you were so beautiful, it was love i guess

and you might never come back home, and i may never sleep at night

but god i just hope you’re doing fine out there, i just pray that you’re all right

i feel so alone

i feel so alone out here

(x2)

and i feel so alone without you

i feel so alone out here

i feel so alone, i feel so alone

i’m so alone out here

without you, baby

my EP comes out september 15th, featuring this song. i hope you guys like it <3 

two years sober

two years clean

i’m still ruined

and you’re still some kind of mean

you’ve always been so fucking mean 

i come back home to see you

you don’t know why i’m here

you’ve got some bitch up in your bed and she still reeks of beer

do you like doing to her

what you would do to me

the things i cried about for weeks

that no one would believe

you’ve got your head on backwards

to keep an eye out for your enemies

so you won’t see me coming

to put your knife right in the heart you always hid from me

play with fire 

you’ll get burned

but that’s a lesson

you never learned 

i cut your feet with broken glass

and stain your floor 20 shades of red

by the time i’m done with you

you’ll cry to god and pray for death

but i won’t give it to you yet

my EP comes out september 15th, featuring this song. i hope you like it. <3

remembering things xx

lyrics:

daddy’s been in the woods for 3 days

while mama’s dying where she lays

the food’s getting cold on the stove

that’s how it goes

i’m 9 years old

two little voices crying out

no one knows what about

where do you go when home’s not home

they’re only 9 months old

My latest EP, “Sad Music for Sad People”, is out now. It’s a really personal bit of music, and I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you all for the support and I love you endlessly xxx
