Apart

There’s gonna be a day when I say pity

Have pity on my pride

And soon comes a time we’ll hold our pennies to the light

And call them dimes

Find me on the ground, rustlin’ and bound, sellin’ simple truth

About rippin’ up our roots

Some favor for a friend

Others alone will fend

Here we are again

Apart and damned till then

Have I chosen to have a heartache hardened path

Just posing as true?

Truly you’d say that you could’ve stayed

But you wondered on and of what things could be

I thought we had half the good and the bad, so baby egg me on

See another side of my mouth

Some favor for a call

After this I want all

That it gives to befriend

These lesser sorts of men

There’s gotta be a life worth livin’ long and lovin’ too

Or else why fight for two

Find me on the ground, rustlin’ and bound, sellin’ simple truth

As if we ever had roots

Some favor for a friend

Others alone will fend

Here we are again

Apart and damned till then
