Once Nothing The Dust Of A Town Lyrics

My mama said to me, "Darling, you've got your daddy's temper
So you better watch your mouth, cause it'll lead you to the fire."
I never did learn how to listen and I can't hold my tongue
Now all the smoke is clearing from the shots ringing out
And the water from the rivers will flow into the ocean
Like my heart pumps the blood to the tips of my fingers Here's to the night...to my coma and my brand new set of eyes
A corpse for a bride is dead in my hospital bed
I don't need to write it down
I don't need to spell it out
Thank God these walls can't talk cause they could go on for days
You don't know where I've been
You don't know what I've seen
