Zach Bryan Poems And Closing Time Lyrics

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I've been over drinkin'
'Cause I've been overthinkin'
'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
Chemicals and nicotine, friends ask "How you been?"
And you just learn to say you're alright

[Chorus]
Poems and closing time, oh, sweet love of mine
I found it so hard to find truth
Poems and closing time, oh, sweet love of mine
It'll always just be me and you
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
And those bastards get richer
While the poor dig ditches
To bury their dreamin' in
And labor don't cheat
Baby, 5 a.m. is the reason they're sleepin' in
Oh, men build churches
So the kids find worth in
Somethin' bigger than themselves
But the uncorruptible don't exist
And you can't buy your way outta Hell [Interlude]
Closin' time
I'm lost again past two
Closin' time
It'll always just be me and you

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been over drinkin'
'Cause I've been overthinkin'
'Cause I get so damn anxious at night
Chemicals and nicotine, friends ask me how I've been
You just learn to say you're alright
[Chorus]
Poems and closing time, oh, sweet love of mine
I found it so hard to find truth
Poems and closing time, only true friend of mine
It'll always just be me and you

[Outro]
So don't try to pain me and don't try play me
As one of your sorry fools
Poems and closing time, oh, sweet love of mine
In a world that's growing so cruel
