about

He's a wanderer. He left, but the door is open. Brooding in a bar leads to the simple epiphany that it's up to him to return.

lyrics

Taking my cold contrition
Distance means nothing to me
Pressed all the digits to see how you feel about free

Snakes fall down in your kitchen
Loving the shadows between
Thought i would ask you to see how you feel about free

And you wake the walking dead
And you’re still my daily bread
And it all came back to me
In a gritty smoky sweaty little hard blues-rock bar in metairie

Mapping my days into anthems
Sailing love ships to your head
Do you still have that mattress on your floor for a bed?

And you curse the walking dead
And you’re still my daily bread
And it all came back to me
In a gritty sweaty smelly little hard blues-rock bar in metairie

Ain’t giving up the ghost for nothin’
Ain’t tradin’ in my soul for free
Garbage smells worse in the morning

Gardens are sweet in the morning

Drunk on my cold contrition
Distance like parting a sea
Just had to ask you if you wanted to see about free

And I’m still the walking dead
And you’re still my daily bread
Now it all comes down to me
In a gritty smoky sweaty ugly little hard blues-rock bar in metairie
