Broke every bone in your body

For all I know

Gone halfway to heaven before the devil's seen you go

The years are changing

From far away

And I'll wake up in Nebraska on New Year's Day

I put the brakes on like a sinking suspicion

And tell me what have I got

No control over old libraries of useless thoughts

I think someone should hit you

They should hit you where it hurts

With sticks and stones and break your bones and leave you in the dirt

The things that they say

Behind your back

Are too treacherous to be anything but fact

The future's so bright that it's fight or flight

To the sound of a siren song

When you don't know better, you put off what you can't prolong

Wish you were here

We'd start the year on a death trip!

As the clock struck midnight

In another time zone

All I could think about were your broken bones

And as that car swerved

From side to side

For the first time in a year I felt satisfied

But like every feeling I felt you felt it first

Every time I hurt you felt it worse

And the times I knelt to receive your curse

Are in the ditch by the side of the road
