Clean-Up Crew
Drove across Nebraska for the fourth time in a year
The sky looked like a cracked phone screen
I saw an angel on a hill built on top of a landfill
Overlooking the mess I've made
So fuck the garden and the yard
I can barely tend to my own dreams
Maybe a big life isn't ours
Shot down in the middle of the street
Oh, you had me there for a second
I start to believe that we could make it
It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
You've been driving drunk, hoping you get caught
Living like you're 19 in your mind
As you barter with yourself
You're running out of things to sell
To overcome the death in your eyes
So fuck the garden and the yard
You can barely tend to your own dreams
Maybe a big life isn't meant for us
We'll settle down on a quiet street and hope we don't give in
You had me there for a second
I start to believe that we could make it
It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
I'm seeing you in dreams
You're happy and healthy
Eager to talk after my surprise wedding
They're pushing back the dirt in Tennessee and you ask me
"Is this where you want to be?"
So fuck the garden and the yard
We can barely tend to our own dreams
Maybe a big life isn't ours
Shot dead in the middle of street
Oh, you had me there for a second
I start to believe that we could make it
It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
Eat me alive
The sky looked like a cracked phone screen
I saw an angel on a hill built on top of a landfill
Overlooking the mess I've made
So fuck the garden and the yard
I can barely tend to my own dreams
Maybe a big life isn't ours
Shot down in the middle of the street
Oh, you had me there for a second
I start to believe that we could make it
It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
You've been driving drunk, hoping you get caught
Living like you're 19 in your mind
As you barter with yourself
You're running out of things to sell
To overcome the death in your eyes
So fuck the garden and the yard
You can barely tend to your own dreams
Maybe a big life isn't meant for us
We'll settle down on a quiet street and hope we don't give in
You had me there for a second
I start to believe that we could make it
It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
I'm seeing you in dreams

It's just like life to come teach me a lesson
But every time I swear I forget it
I whistle while I work, but the work is gone
So let the clean-up crew just come eat me alive
Eat me alive
