Wire

Keep it in my pocket
She can't hold it where she lay
She don't need it where she
Plenty of that where it could pay
I sit there by the counter
Where i sell that things that kill
Propped up by dollar bills
Behind this rusty till

I'm tired of walking this wire
It keeps me awake for heaven sake
I was made for this, girl.
I feel lonely
My friends don't seem to know me
Like i thought they did.

Another wasted day
Counting every single breath
So this is what is left
A shawl to wear around my neck
To hold me close to home
When i'm being pulled apart,
Why am i always kept away
From what i hold inside my heart

I'm tired of walking this wire
It keeps me awake for heaven sake
I was made for this girl
I feel lonely
My friends don't seem to know me
Like i thought they did.
I thought they did but they don't.
