Lyrics

The waitress keeps making it weird I wish she wouldn't call me "big brother" Seems like the faith we attain is a function of how much we suffer I put the cash on the bed, they put a gash in my head The whole thing didn't take very long And I was hoping that Galveston would be more like the song I met some sailors out in Texas City They were tying off the ropes They said they're supposed to be in Corpus Christi But they fell off the boat They said that Jesus is love and He's the jury and judge He'll hurt your heart with His hope I said, "The God you promote seems a lot like the devil I loathe" Don't pull your money out until you're super sure of it The very last second when you know you're going through with it The very last second, still the slightest possibility Sophistication is the lack of gullibility Don't bring a gun unless you think you're up for shooting it The very last second when you know you're going through with it Depressive tendencies, a problem with anxiety The medication and a month in the facility Yeah, I guess there were signs Yeah, I'm sure there were signs I finally made it down to McAllen I asked around the station for you There were people that heard, but there was no one that knew When I got on the bus, it was pretty much dusk Sat and watched the daylight diffuse The amount that we waste seems much more than the things we can't use And now the waitress keeps making it weird I wish she wouldn't call me "big brother" Seems like the faith we attain is a function of how much we suffer Seems like the faith we attain is a function of how much we suffer Seems like the faith we attain is a function of how much we suffer
