Off The Wagon Lyrics - Bad Astronaut

The ring like a stain in the wood 

A drink from years ago I'm sure 

A black and white on the wall from years ago when we were good 

Somewhere 

This house is a pain station 

Awaiting blueprints for relief 

The party's finally over 

And everyone else had to leave 

It binds you, reminds me 

Pick up the grocery for your head 

Take this invitation 

Please don't waste another day 

Hold my hands above my head 

This ride is misery 

Between the bars you're clinging to a world of cold embrace 

I'm still here to remind you 

The world hasn't changed 

You're still alone 

"No more pretending for him" 

A hopeless voice cracks on the phone 

It's deafening, reminds me pick up the passport for your trip 

Take this one 

It's leaving 

It's the last bound for repair 

I'll be here relieving all your loves and all your cares 

If there were words to give you hope 

If you would treasure all you have 

They'd believe in you my friend 

So long, so long 

I'll keep the gold
