Jason Isbell piosenki

I moved into this room, if you could call it that, a week ago. I never do what I'm supposed to do. I hardly even know my name anymore. When no one calls it out, it kinda vanishes away. I can't get to sleep at night. The parking lot's so loud and bright....

You said you heard of me, so why are you so afraid? some minor changes made, you missed the big parade another filthy day, another Hollywood sign you missed the caution line, and you just walked right in. YOU WALKED RIGHT IN there's somebody here, somebo...

My door is locked, my debts are paid. I'll do the Chicago promenade. My back was turned I did not see that shadow climbing up on me. I took my turn at fixing hearts but that goes bad before it starts. I'm desperate now, I must say. I'll do the Chicago p...

I saw her in Roosevelt Springs, where time doesn't touch anything She never did say she could sing, but I figured it so I needed some company then, not sisters or children or men That's a hell of a spot to be in, but she put me in tow Money and liquor and...

If there's one thing I can't stand It's this bar and this cover band Trying to fake their way through 'Castles Made of Sand'. That's one thing I can't stand. If there's one thing I can't take It's the sound that a woman makes About five seconds after he...

A heart on the run 
Keeps a hand on the gun 
You can’t trust anyone 

I was so sure 
What I needed was more 
Tried to shoot out the sun 

In days when we raged 
We flew off the page 
Such damage was done 

But I made it through 
To somebody new 
...

Lay down beside me Close your eyes and feel the noonday sun. These eyes, they remind me Of a scared and simple doe before she runs. John was a Baptist. He feared the world could end at any time. You and I are charged with this, to hold the essence of a...

Staring at the picture of the runaways on the wall Seems like these day you couldn't run away at all And even if you did, what you got to run away to? Just another drunk daddy with a white man's point of view. I can see you in my mind's eye catching light Sle...

Standing in the window with his tongue hanging out, like the king of something evil in a yearlong drought. With a dirty white suit, a big white hat, a bullet in his pocket no matter where he's at. He's trouble, but ain't we all. Trouble, but ain't we all....

What can you see from your window? I can't see anything from mine. Flags on the side of the highway and scripture on grocery store signs. Maybe eighteen was too early. Maybe thirty or forty is too. Did you get your chance to make peace with the man befo...

She said “Andy you’re better than your past”, winked at me and drained her glass, cross-legged on the barstool, like nobody sits anymore. She said Andy you’re taking me home, but I knew she planned to sleep alone. I’d carry her to bed and sweep up the hair fro...

From the sky we look so organized and brave 
Walls that make up barricades and graves 
Daddy's little empire built by hands and built by slaves 
From the sky we look so organized and brave 

In the heat I saw you rising from the dirt 
Drunken tears and tuggin...

Are you lonely tonight? Are you out on the road? I'm headed home to go it alone again. Are you dreaming out loud? Scared of the crowds? I'm headed home to go it alone again. It's realizing just how close you've come to death. and rearranging accordingl...

You better watch yourself this time On your waiting in a long line Of kicking off a slow crime I guess the Devil wouldn't have you But you used who what you're used to You always seem to somehow make it through I know I let myself go a bit I try to l...

Last night I heard the sirens' song and I followed it in the ditch. Oh baby, I'm just carrying on. Far be it for me to bitch. Last night I heard the distant hum of another damn hurricane. Oh Sunnie tell me where you've gone. Are you still dancing to Purple...

I was out there all alone. I was searching for a friend. You saw my need and you came along. With that charm you took me in. Then one night you captured my heart. Turned the smoke into a flame. I can't free my heart from you baby, 'Cause you keep it h...

See the man with the military mind Trying to make us all afraid all the time Trying to make us all stay inside and lock our doors and windows See the man's got too much to count Try to recollect the sermon on the mount Blessed are the poor when they're al...

I got a glass of wine, I got a cigarette I should be feeling fine I ain't feeling nothing yet She's leading the second line Feel like I'm in front of it I guess I am tonight I got a cigarette My glass is empty now I got a little wine I ain't gonna br...

In a razor town you take whoever you think you can keep around. There's an echoed sound that permeates the sidewalk where she shuffles 'round. It's a big machine. It used to be the avenue of changing dreams. She's a lonely thing, sweeping up the glitter...

There's a man who walks beside me 
It is who I used to be 
And I wonder if she sees him 
and confuses him with me 
And I wonder who she's pinin' for 
on nights I'm not around 
Could it be the man who did the things 
I'm living now ? 
I was rougher than a timb...
