At The Bottom
- Wait
- I watched you throw out your bouquet
- Now i think about you everyday
- I'm alone now in my bed
- And there's a lake
- And at the bottom you'll find all my friends
- They don't swim cause they're all dead
- We never are what we intend, or invent
- 'Cause I make little lies and then I pull them apart
- Think something dark's living down in my heart
- And if I wanted to die before I got old
- I should've started some years ago digging that hole
- Well, I carry this box to the proper place
- And when I lower it down I let you fade away
- I hope that you would do this for me
- Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
- If I thought it would help you get away
- I hope that you would do this for me
- A deer that a hunter shot in the heart
- Some dogs that got hit by cars
- All came to spill their guts
- And we spoke
- About the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
- And which psalms we had loved the most
- And then we all turned to dirt and dust
- Some men die under the mountain just looking for gold
- Some die looking for a hand to hold
- Well, I carry this box to its proper place
- And when I lower it down I let you fade away
- I hope that you would do this for me
- Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
- If I thought it would help you get away
- I hope that you would do this for me
- I stole bricks from the dam almost every day
- Now I'm drowning in the flood I've made
- Who'll explain myself to me on the other side
- I'm gonna want some answers when I die.
- Well, I carry this box to the proper place
- And when I lower it down
- I let you fade away
- I hope that you would do this for me
- Well, I'd serve you drugs on a silver plate
- If I thought it would help you get away
- I hope that you would do this for me
