I’m no man worthy of your time.
I spend my days with the swine.
Though I feel I’ve committed no crime, I’ve lost faith that wasn’t mine.
Sunken eyes, swollen tongue, my mind is on the run.
What’s that thing you always said?
“Try to take it slow”? Get out of the hole”?
You know what it’s like?
Took care of my skeletons, put them in the pit.
What more is there left to do?
I’ll take a dagger to the chest if I could get some rest.
Dug this hole, but I’m still digging.

I’m going down slowly.
I’m enjoying the pace.
I was never that holy.
I might get used to the place.

I’ve got a cross on my back. It’s ruining my spine.
But other than that, I guess I’m doing fine.
If I could see it I guess I would believe.
But just sedate me.
I just want to sleep.

Don’t waste your time on me. You’ll attract more flies with honey.
Just put my head on a stake.
Keep me awake.
Sunken eyes, swollen tongue, my mind is on the run.
What’s that thing you always said?
“Try to take it slow”? Get out of the hole”?
I know what it’s like.
I buried all my skeletons and I sealed the pit.
What more is there left to do?
I’ll take a dagger to the chest if I could get some rest.
Dug this hole, I’m always digging.

I’m going down slowly.
I’m enjoying the pace.
I was never that holy.
I might get used to the place.

I’ve got a cross on my back. It’s ruining my spine.
But other than that, I guess I’m doing fine.
If I could see it I guess I would believe.
But just sedate me.
I just want to sleep.
Got blood on my hands from holding on to the noose.
And I’ve been drowning myself with liquor and the devils blues.
And I’d be better, I swear, if I could just stay sober.
But I don’t want that man.
Just bury me when this is over.

I’ve got a cross on my back. It’s ruining my spine.
But other than that, I guess I’m doing fine.
If I could see it I guess I would believe.
But just sedate me man.
I just want to sleep.
