Tough Love
(I'm betting on)
She was out to lunch
I was out to pasture
Praying that the Lord don't bring the rapture
Praying that the Lord'll just keep me involved
It's all for me I'm a prima donna
Stretched so thin like a Dali llama
Praying that the clock would dissolve
Holding back tears at the family function
Loving so hard right past discussion
Does anybody know her at all?
Dead man walking like a rich Egyptian
Paying off a fat stack of bad decisions
Running from the root of the cause
The sun comes out and it turns to laughter
I ask my friends what they were after
Nobody remembers at all
I thought about some names I'd give my children
They pop out and God says "Once more with feeling!"
Until the tension resolves
Do I wake up inside your face?
Or is it makeup draping down over all of us?
Mona Lisa's down bad
I guess we all weren't built for that
Tough love from you
Playing a game we could lose
Betting on you
Driving upstate to a new dispensary
Got a pen pal at the penitentiary
Smoking either side of the wall
Misdiagnosis of the earth's condition
Got him in the quad yelling with conviction
He doesn't see the irony fall
Hometown hero crying in the basement
Momma's upstairs
Oedipal arrangement
Ain't nobody seen where he's gone
Freedom ringing out in the art department
Eugene Stoner made us all a sergeant
Shooting down your kids in the hall
I got the best view at the pastor pageant
Truth is in the room but it starts to fragment
Steady as the people evolve
Stomping on a pew and I put my hands up
Dressing my grief up like a tantrum
Looking for a God to exalt
Do I wake up inside your face?
Or is it makeup draping down over all of us?
Mona Lisa's down bad
I guess we all weren't built for that
Tough love from you
Playing a game we could lose
Betting on you
(Lose, betting on, on you)
She was out to lunch
I was out to pasture
Praying that the Lord don't bring the rapture
Praying that the Lord'll just keep me involved
It's all for me I'm a prima donna
Stretched so thin like a Dali llama
Praying that the clock would dissolve
Holding back tears at the family function
Loving so hard right past discussion
Does anybody know her at all?
Dead man walking like a rich Egyptian
Paying off a fat stack of bad decisions
Running from the root of the cause
The sun comes out and it turns to laughter
I ask my friends what they were after
Nobody remembers at all
I thought about some names I'd give my children
They pop out and God says "Once more with feeling!"
Until the tension resolves
Do I wake up inside your face?
Or is it makeup draping down over all of us?
Mona Lisa's down bad
I guess we all weren't built for that
Tough love from you
Playing a game we could lose

Driving upstate to a new dispensary

Tough love from you
Playing a game we could lose
Betting on you
(Lose, betting on, on you)
