Iron out the Maiden

Said I'm back, back

Yeah, you write, right

Go to sleep in the morning

Wake at night, night

I said I'm back, back

Yeah, you write, right

Go to sleep in the morning

Wake at night

I ain't got no time to waste, I've been wasted

Praying for some light to break but the days end

Twilight, I'm wide awake, getting faded

One butterfly pull the iron out the maiden

I ain't got no time to waste, I've been wasted

Praying for some light to break but the days end

Twilight, I'm wide awake, getting faded

One butterfly pull the iron out the maiden

My life story - just the irony you blending in

The black cowboy who's really just an Indian

Outcast citizen, out for cash and dividends

Bread, cheese, and bank, I'm just really tryin' to save my skin

And take care of Kin, plus my dearest friends

Who gave me bread or a bed when I had no ends

Or stole the shovel when I went to dig my grave again

And asked me where my album's at and when I'll play again

I ain't got no time to waste, I've been wasted

Praying for some light to break but the days end

Twilight, I'm wide awake, getting faded

One butterfly pull the iron out the maiden

I ain't got no time to waste, I've been wasted

Praying for some light to break but the days end

Twilight, I'm wide awake, getting faded

One butterfly pull the iron out the maiden

I've been broken hearted (ugh), I've broken hearts

Can't tell the treasure from the trash when it gets too dark

I've been torn apart, but I've been mended back

With a needle and a thread, and an nicotine patch

Getting clean, hoping nothing pushes me to relapse

Like watching dreams pass, or chasing greener grass

You're better off crying right into that empty glass

So sick of being depressed, this shouldn't make me laugh

I ain't got no time to waste, I've been wasted

Praying for some light to break but the days end
