I sat that demon down And summoned the legion That look in your eye I played with the seasons So lay it down You can't be finding truth where it can't be found So lift your head up Stare straight at the sun You're broken to pieces with this sad song So lay it down You can't grow a flower with vinegar It's nice of you to come my way and try to put me back together I've been gone for far too long As the sand in your hourglass is falling And the flower you held yesterday is dead and gone Into the vein Push it in then pull it out Heat it up on a silver spoon It's what them blues keep talking about So lay it down Taste of a sweet song with a drinking man It's nice of you to come my way and try to put me back together I've been gone for far too long As the sand in your hourglass is falling And the flowers you held yesterday are dead and gone
