Blood for Poppies

Salute the sun, I been sittin' here all night long
Haulin' rock over Buddha with a longhorn
Got a hole, rip the pocket off my uniform
With the black watch boys, get your heads
Down

Oh

Duty calls, but it's way too late, I'm too far
Gone
Waiting for God, oh, Hell, with my pants down
Crack the stash, then be quiet in the midday
Sun
I miss my dog and I miss my freedom

Oh, oh, oh

I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here, just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right

I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here, just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right

I hate the things I think about you when I'm all
Alone
I know you're tough, but I been gone for so
Long
Play the memories of you inside my head
So all these pictures of me burn and radiate

Watch the clouds, and I'm falling, falling
Through the cracks
Head beats, and my heart is pounding fast
Off the ground into the starry dark
Into your arms I'm falling

Oh, oh, oh

I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here, just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right

I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here, just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right

My brain, my body's fried
I've got to stay alive
I've gotta take a chance
And keep on moving, keep on moving

I don't know why they are calling on the radio
They know I'm here, just out of sight
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right

Don't know why, don't know why they are
Calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm right
Don't know why they are calling on the radio
It's by my side and I know I'm alright

(Miles away) Oh
(Feel like miles away) Oh
