Lafayette Street

I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette Street
Same damn thing I did last week
I'm taking in smoke hoping it burns me inside
Tired of feeling the way I do since you left me behind

When you got out of here you didn't even slow down
Didn't hit a break light you just sped out of town
I guess who I thought you were was a giant lie
Could barely even look at me when you said goodbye

Oh, I'm tired of mistaking lust for love
As soon as I open up, they get up and run
Lord, why did you curse me with such a rugged soul
Why is my heart just a revolving door?
Why is my heart just a revolving door?

Oh, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette Street
Same damn thing I did last week
Stoned and staring at the stars on an August night
I shut the town down again, not a car in sight

The world is spinning, and I can't keep up
I'm just old haggard mess and I need to sober up
They say to get hope requires something broken
But I've been hopeless since she broke me in

Oh, I'm tired of mistaking lust for love
As soon as I open up, they get up and run
Lord, why did you curse me with such a rugged soul
Why is my heart just a revolving door?
Why is my heart just a revolving door?

Oh, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette Street
Same damn thing I did last week
I'm drowning out this pain 'til it makes me sick
Guiding me are streetlights and brick

Oh, I'm tired of mistaking lust for love
As soon as I open up, they get up and run
Lord, why did you curse me with such a rugged soul
Why is my heart just a revolving door?
Why is my heart just a revolving door?

Oh, I'm standing the corner of Lafayette Street
Same damn thing I did last week
