Monday Best

I put the day away I keep my coffin tight I walk a lonely road In the winter when the lights aren't bright This house is empty now All my friends have come and gone With such an angry mouth It's hard to keep good company for long I put on my Sunday best And head to town sometimes To a bar that no one knows Where they only serve me fine red wine I think about my lover Sleeping now with empty eyes Pine box dreams and bloodless seams And I cannot find a way to draw the line But I try and I fight it but it never comes I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel And it goes around until I fall I try and I fight it but it's not enough I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel And it goes around until I fall I keep the sun in mind I drink my coffee black I fasten neon signs To a city where they don't come back The water's rising high And I'll be sinking at the break of dawn Clouds keep coming on a railroad track And my body is dead but I keep on keeping on I take off my Monday best And I've been sleeping near the county line In a bed that rolls and flows On a tear that never leaves my eye I think about my lover Coming down heavy with her highway shoes She's on her feet where we used to meet And she's bored again with nothing left to lose But I try and I fight it but it never comes I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel And it goes around until I fall I try and I fight it but it's not enough I get my head strung tight in a winding wheel And it goes around until I fall
