My Dying Spirit

[Verse 1]

I'm barely on my feet, mama

Barely holding on by a thread

Every night I lose a different friend

Thought I had it how I wanted

Far away as I could ever dream

I don't think California's my speed

[Pre-Chorus]

All on my own

All I know

[Chorus]

If I'm high like those other guys you've kissed

Maybe I'll find you in my bed again

But I'm all alone, living on the edge

I'm right at the limit

Will I ever heal my dying spirit

[Verse 2]

I'm hanging on needless hunger

Keeps the tears out the devil's eyes

I don't eat because he tells me that it's fine

Barely even standing now

Goddamn I need another round

I can hear my name out in the crowd, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

If I'm high like those other guys you've kissed

Maybe I'll find you in my bed again

But I'm all alone, living on the edge

I'm right at the limit

Will I ever heal my dying spirit

[Bridge]

If I was a hotel lobby, you'd be mighty fucking sorry to be staying at this piece of shit right off highway 9

I'm on the floor of my kitchen on a vaporizing mission

Find a little calm

Please ease my mind

I'm so sorry Alexa, I won't make her graduation

But tell Sloaney girl she's the apple of my eye

Tell her, take your time

Take your time

Take your

Take your

Take your time

I get high

[Outro]

Yeah, oh baby, yeah

Every night I'm hanging on by a thread

Yeah, oh baby, yeah

I'll never heal it, my dying spirit
