You set my heart on fire
Baby, it's burning for you
And that blood through your veins
Get's lost in that maze
I get lost in you, too
So now I'm lying awake on the couch
The television's blue
you're out on the town doing god knows what
with god knows who
It's gonna take a grown man
Takes a grown man to let you go
sleepless nights in this city by the sea
forget what you know
It's gonna take a grown man
Takes a grown man to let you go
But I am nothing but a child
Wearing a grown man's clothes
Give me a reason why
Oh give me a reason why
The fresh ink of love
fades over time
So I'm lying awake on the floor
The ceiling fan goes round and round and round
You're going to change it
Can't just take a heart and give it back the way you found it

Villain

There's a villain in this story
Ain't got no need for the glory
He's a desperate man
Ain't no hero to thwart his plan
This morning started like it always does
A hangover and a coffee cup
Move aside, man, you're in your own way
You've always been your own worst enemy
He's dressed in black
Where's he's been ain't no going back
You're tied to the railroad tracks
He walks away twirling his mustache
There's a villain in this story

I'm just a bum from old Missouri
Sometimes I fish in my bare feet
But if the fish ain't biting, well
A cold Busch light works for me
I'm just a bum from old Missouri
Driving slow on 65
Looks like they're hauling hay from Lincoln
Gotta be cool when you pass 'em by
I was drinking with my friends when the thunderstorm began
We opened up the garage doors
We passed around some shine
Unfold the chairs
That storm knew how to pour
I'm just a bum from old Missouri
Flour that fishy for the fry
When the big one comes for me
Hold my hand on my heart as I die
After all is said and done
And the fair gets packed away
Those nuts and bolts still on the ground
Well they'll sweep them up someday
A hand reached out to guide you
A voice so soft and sweet
Summer has come and gone
But there she'll always be
So carry me home
Summer has come and gone

Time to Waste

Loaded like freight on a train
The bottles outta know me by name by now
But I gotta take my medicine before I lose my mind
Cause she went hot
but I was on fire
The truth
but I was a liar
She lay right down
when I needed someone to stand with me
Now all I got is time
All I got is time to waste
My grandfather told me so
Before they laid his sweet soul in the ground
Big A, boy, you gotta keep one foot before the other
Cause this world
will claw you apart
It'll break it'll batter you from the start
It'll knock you down
and throw your sorry ass to the dogs
and all you'll have is time
All you'll have is time to waste
running so slow I pray that you catch me
Sleeping in my clothes since the day that you left me
The first one to go yet you turned off the lights
started the car and put it in drive and rolled on
