Manchester Orchestra - Pensacola lyrics
[Manchester Orchestra - Pensacola lyrics]
Now I have a nagging flaw I
Never saw it sneaking up
It wrapped it's dirty arms around me
Pockets full of blood
After I had seen the sight I
Hardly had a choice to fight
A nail stuck out behind the van
And it hit me through my sweater and my shirt
And when I looked at Michael he
Heard "I need to be alone"
When he turned his head I soon
Corrected "need to be at home"
It took me all this time to get
Where I said I would never be
I hope it's not even out there
I hope eventually you'll see what
You've been turning me into it's all for you
It feels like 37 years and I
Am nothing but a bank if we could build our
Credit score "Incredible
" they'll surely say
But, I can credit only one
To focus all the fame
It has the first and last even
The middle of my very name
I am the greatest man that never
Lived and now I never sleep
I never lost a fight but never
Knew I started one the same
I never knew how capable I would become
I'm tired of talking to a wall when
I could talk to someone else
It's got seven days without a word
And you're with someone somewhere else
My daughter, she barely eats
She barely sleeps she barely speaks
My daughter, she barely eats
She barely sleeps she barely speaks to me
(To me, to me)
We spent the most of nights defending
Fights you fought in the past
But it was different now and I'm
Entirely too drunk to ask (To me, to me)
You spend most every day enjoying the
Sun and hoping it lasts (To me, to me)
I have a funny gut and feeling
Doubtful you'll get it back (To me, to me)
I have a funny gut and feeling
Doubtful you'll get it back
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(My daughter she barely eats)
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(she barely sleeps)
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(she barely speaks)
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(My daughter she barely eats)
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(she barely sleeps)
Alcohol, dirty malls, Pensacola, Florida bars
(she barely speaks)
Never saw it sneaking up
It wrapped it's dirty arms around me
