Lyrics

The Sling

It was all on me
Heaven descend
Voice of a friend

I could die happy
If I started again
Started again

It was all on me
Time would bend
Like a drunken tree

What makes me lose my head
Love and memory
Why toss and turn in bed
Love and memory

On a lonely street
Children still play
Families still eat

Father tells Eugene
He'll only meet God
If the kitchen is clean

This is not on me
Time would bend
Like a drunken tree

What makes me lose my head
Love and memory
Why toss and turn in bed
Love and memory

Smile so gapped Like a stray dog's teeth
Blue Cadillac in the leather seat I sat
I had the sling pulled back
Heaven is a junkyard and I'm at home
Heaven is a junkyard and I'm at home
Heaven is a junkyard and it's my home
