The Things I Can’t Change

There ain't enough pills in this bottle
Ain't enough green in these fields
There ain't enough shine from the moonlight
To shadow the pain that I feel

There ain't enough rope in the bedroom
To keep me here hanging around
While you kill all my dreams with a hammer
There ain't no place that I can lay down

There ain't enough knives in the kitchen
There ain't enough shells for my gun
There ain't enough gin in this bottle
To wash off the blood from my tongue

There ain't enough words in the bible
To give me a moment of faith
That someday all can be forgivin
And we'll both find a reason to stay

But this is the last time
You'll ever see me crying
This is the last time
I call out your name
And this is the one song
That I'll write for forgiveness
To tell you I'm sorry
For the things I can't change

In the darkness there's peace in the silence
And I can't stand to turn on the light
To see where you're supposed to be dreaming
The emptiness cuddles me tight
There ain't enough pills in this bottle
There ain't enough green in these fields
There ain't enough chords on my guitar
To show you how I really feel

But this is the last time
You'll ever see me crying
This is the last time
I call out your name
This is the one songs
I'll write for forgiveness
To tell you I'm sorry
For the things I can't change
To tell you I'm sorry
For the things I can't change
