[00:12.40].
[00:15.30]At the bottom of the first drink,
[00:16.68]I found my nerve.
[00:18.30]At the bottom of the next one,
[00:19.79]I met my girl.
[00:21.41]At the bottom of the third drink,
[00:22.99]I found the fourth.
[00:24.86]And at the bottom of that one
[00:26.24]Was a Trojan horse
[00:28.35]That carried in demons
[00:30.07]Who brought their brides.
[00:31.63]And they tempted darkness,
[00:32.99]Where I lost my mind.
[00:35.04]Well, the fifth drink found it
[00:36.85]And carried it home where my girl was waiting
[00:40.24]One foot out the door.
[00:41.55].
[00:42.55]Another night spent gathering dust.
[00:46.03]Mug shots of a marble bust.
[00:49.58]Ruination leaves the lantern lit,
[00:52.03]So I know where the good lovin' is.
[00:55.01].
[00:55.81]I used to be a goddamn saint.
[00:58.43]I said my prayers and I handled snakes.
[01:02.12]Until the road introduced me to sin.
[01:05.01]I only shook hands with drink,
[01:06.59]But he had his friends with him.
[01:08.19].
[01:08.81]I cursed the day we raised out glass
[01:12.28]Up like a bridge to let the devil pass,
[01:16.15]Cause he ain't ever left this town,
[01:18.59]And only beaten and unborn are living with him now.
[01:21.98].
[01:23.23]I used to be a holy man,
[01:26.21]Who'd put an onion in a beggar's hand
[01:29.63]But now I'd rather not believe.
[01:32.24]How could a man I've never met be so cruel to me?
[01:35.67].
[01:36.04]At least I'm in good company.
[01:39.04]At least I'm in good company.
[01:41.79]I'll drink to that.
[01:43.31]I'll drink to that.
[01:46.10].
[02:00.34]Dash the cup.
[02:02.26]Fifteen years has been long enough.
[02:05.29]Put the child in an unmarked grave
[02:08.05]And burn the black book, page by page.
[02:12.24]Go alone, there is your road.
[02:15.67]For once, I'm awake and I will not serve madness.
[02:20.79]For once, I'm awake and I will not serve madness.
[02:27.43]Cause I am not the company I keep.
[02:30.45]I am not the company I keep
[02:33.70]I am not the company I keep
[02:36.81]I am not the company I keep
[02:39.81]Dash the cup.
[02:41.62]Fifteen years has been long enough.
[02:44.68]Put the child in an unmarked grave
[02:48.18]And burn the black book, page by page.
[02:51.63].
