Choose a track to play
Big as lonely is tonight down at the liquor store
Beneath the neon sky and moonlight 6 a.m
The floor comes alive with lights
The pounds dried up so tight
We're hardened beings and we're hungry
Hell I'll lean on you sometimes
Just to see you're still there
These feet can't take the weight of one
Much less two, when we hit concrete
When we pull into this mess
I know I painted you a prettier picture baby
We were runnin' off on our rails
Belt from the wagon to the night train
I kissed the bottle
I should have been kissing you
You wake up to an empty night
Tears for two
Cigarettes to fill the gaps
In our empty days, in our broken teeth
Say mister can't you spare a dime
Some change could make a change
Could buy some time, some freedom
For an end to end my story
That's all I got, fiction
Beats the hell out of my truth
If I got this term paper blue
Don't call it a sunburn
You've been shakin' on a job
Just one drink ahead of your past
There's a white light comin' up
Draw the blinds open it'll pass
I kissed the bottle
I should have been kissing you
You wake up to an empty night
Tears for two
