"Staying with Friends"
Written by Jon Smith

Well I’m staying with friends and they’re still asleep
I’m awake on the couch I can’t remember my dreams .
Sweat rolls down my back like it’s running from me
And ten months behind the only direction I see.
These cigarettes they don’t taste like anything
There’s not a book a shelf that speaks a word to me
When numb is more normal than normal be well,
We drink a lot of whiskey.
Chorus
There was a time if you
Care to hear or believe
I didn’t act
This way

There’s a girl in the house and she frowns on the floor
Sad that her flower has evened the score
Not remembering what life was like before
With a days worth of work she couldn’t have said more
Well whats the wicked matter I whisper my woes
He plays in a sandbox and calls on the phone
And I haven’t held his head since the ocean left me I’ve been
Drinking a lot of whiskey

Now to find my way home along out of sight
When keeping the peace means living a lie
I got a rose in one hand the other a knife
I don’t know who they’re for
I don’t see any sign
Well do mountains learn to speak when you’re lonely enough
I heard something about the wind forgot to mention love
Sweet wind sing your song here I be just
Drinking a lot of whiskey
