![]() The last hint of patchouli leaves the room And as an aching heart yearns Bourbon fueled resentment starts to loom Stale smoke of incense in your eyes A bloodshot crust of old tears start to form Anxious hours full of hows and whys Panic of who, what, where, when are born Slip on, tighten up that leather belt To the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while Slip on, tighten up that leather belt To the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while And as the darkness falls Nights, they never used to be this black And as a voice of reason calls Bourbon fueled decisions set you back Feels like no other way out Seems the only way to kill your pain No fight, no kick, no scream, no shout Dancing with the angels in the rain Slip on, tighten up that leather belt To the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while Slip on, tighten up that leather belt To the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while What are you doing here Kicking the teeth of those who care Leaving behind a legacy of hurt What are you doing here Bourbon fueled and unaware Pick it up, start brushing off that dirt Bleary eyed, too wired to sleep Visions of the ones who need you here Mesmerized, lifting from the deep Bourbon fueled atonement bring the tears And as hope returns That voice of reason gets a second chance And as the page gets turned The angels have to wait their turn to dance Slip off, loosen up that leather belt From the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while Slip off, loosen up that leather belt From the last notch Asking for forgiveness all the while ![]() |
