Junkmail
There's a lock on your front door
That keeps me from knowing who you were
And who you are
Because you never showed me
All the color in your scars
The burns, the birthmarks, the busted teeth
On the west side of the river
Satellite and single wide
You were safe behind the curtains
Warm behind the blinds
Now I'm diggin through the Junkmail
To see what I can find
And I sing
Ooooooooh
Oooooooh
Ooooooooh
Ooooooooh
Now I ain't sleepin much at night
Just listen to my heartbeat
And I am set upon by dreams
As mean as fire alarms
Really sometimes I am cryin,
Sometimes I hold it down
Should I take your old jean jacket
Should I put a record on
Should I sleep out in your pickup
Should I steal your guns
The crucifixes, and dreamcatchers
And everything you've done
We will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest, in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
We will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest just in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Yes we will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest just in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Mmmmh
Mmmh
Mmmh
Mmmh
That keeps me from knowing who you were
And who you are
Because you never showed me
All the color in your scars
The burns, the birthmarks, the busted teeth
On the west side of the river
Satellite and single wide
You were safe behind the curtains
Warm behind the blinds
Now I'm diggin through the Junkmail
To see what I can find
And I sing
Ooooooooh
Oooooooh
Ooooooooh
Ooooooooh
Now I ain't sleepin much at night
Just listen to my heartbeat
And I am set upon by dreams
As mean as fire alarms
Really sometimes I am cryin,
Sometimes I hold it down
Should I take your old jean jacket
Should I put a record on
Should I sleep out in your pickup
Should I steal your guns
The crucifixes, and dreamcatchers
And everything you've done
We will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest, in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
We will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest just in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Yes we will lay you to rest the day the King died in Memphis
With medicine on your chest just in case you get restless
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Just in case you need some help
From one place to the next
Mmmmh
Mmmh
Mmmh
Mmmh
