lyrics

It's early in the morning you're alone in your house
Listening to your favorite songs still trying to figure out
Exactly how your fragile heart shattered on the ground
You've been crying selfish tears now

It's later in the morning I'm alone in this house
Listening to The Horrible Crowes I turn them up real loud
I grab a drink and I'm wondering exactly why you left
And I wonder if I'll see your face again

The words and chords will always change
but they share a constant theme
There's something about just writing down
All this agony and pain
Well the words and chords will always change
The songs remain the same
There's something about just singing these songs for me

It's early in the afternoon
And I'm off to leave this house
Going down to the liquor store
To drown these sorrows out
I'm listening to the old sad songs
The high and lonesome sound
And I wish that you with me right now

The words and chords will always change
but they share a constant theme
There's something about just writing down
All this agony and pain
Well the words and chords will always change
The songs remain the same
There's something about just singing these songs for me

Take a long hard look tonight
Empty bottle of sleeping tablets by the bedside
With all the unsent letters aging like a fine red wine
With I'm sorry and I miss you all the time

The words and chords will always change
but they share a constant theme
There's something about just writing down
All this agony and pain
Well the words and chords will always change
The songs remain the same
There's something about just singing these songs for me
There's something about just singing these songs for me
There's something about just singing these old sad songs
