I can be romantic

When I'm starving for sleep

With hair from a dog

So I shove it down my throat

Luck left late Saturday and now

Jesus Christ I'm wrecked to bed

They watch me sleeping in the kennel again

I can't recall the bark but the bay, I admit

If I was listening I could hear it

I’m shock-collared at the gates of heaven

25 years that I’ve been trying to shake loose

Throw away my phone

Strap a muzzle to my mouth now

If I was listening I could hear it
[Chorus]
If I listen I can hear
F C
Palms kept white hot gold rings folded like a
Am
Knot tied tight sweat leave sleep take me now

I've done nothing right

I can't see what's there
But if I listen I can hear

Luck bent low roar drum pressed to the glass

The glass pressed loose soft spots marked on the wall
F
Wall an empty stomach
C
I've done nothing right
Am
I can't see what's there
If I listen I can hear
F C
Palms kept white hot gold rings folding like a
Am
Knot tied tight sweat leave sleep take me now
F
I've done nothing right
C
I've gone wrong beside
Am
I can't see what's there
I can't see anything at all
