It's
gotten to a point
where
the devil won't even buy my soul –
he said
it's too broken and there’s no way
he
could make a profit.
All I
wanted for it was a few 2 milligram bars of xanax
and a
cheap bottle of brandy,
but
apparently I ain’t even worth that.
But
maybe it's all for the best
because
if I really am that broken
then at
least I know damn well
I've
got some character –
a
rusted tractor rotting away gracefully
at the
edge of a barren field in Kansas
filled
with stars...
I’d
'wanna sit somewhere like that
to
spend the night drinking
and
then sleeping the day away,
not
someplace where I know there’d be
an
angry old farmer up before dawn
to
chase my plastered ass off his property
with a
shotgun.
And so
it seems to have come to this,
when
all my fields have finally died
and I
can sit back and harvest
the
moon with my eyes.
