Before the Flood

I wake up every morning

Keep it straight every day

If you'd just come back to me

I'd find a reason to stay

All of the good times

Well, they gone bad

One drink for happy

Two drinks for sad

Two drinks for sad

Walk the white line at midnight

It don't feel the same

I never knew the darkness

Was hiding so much pain

No sugary sunrise

And no salt on my lips

A guitar with no strings

Horse with no whip

Horse with no whip

Horse with no whip

If I get through December

If I get through the rain

If I get through this parking lot

Maybe I'll change

But right now I'm driving

Nowhere to go

Missed the money to win

Missed the money to show

Money to show

I'll write you a letter

Seal it in blood

Hope that it finds you

Before the flood

Till then I'm waiting

For music to play

For the right time to die

For a better day

For a better day

For a better day

And I'll write you a letter

Sign it in blood

I hope that it finds you

Before the flood

Before the flood

Before the flood
