Gimme Some Dirt

Lyrics

Oh how to I've tried to keep my heart alive.
And I wind up in the dives that call my name.
The more you say my demons are to blame, 
The less I trust the angels anyway.
At dawn, I rise, and I try to see the skies
Without so many questions in my brain.
You say that's sad.  But I ain't ashamed of that.
Nobody wants to bed down with a saint.

I get so lonely being out here alone.
Am I the only one ain't hiding below?
Gimme some dirt so we got somewhere to grow.
Tell me your worst, or I got somewhere to go.

Oh tell me bout the times you weren't too proud.
And honey, don't leave out the ugly parts.
Please be my man, and say you understand
We're blessed that we've been damned with broken hearts.

I get so lonely being out here alone.
Am I the only one ain't hiding below?
Gimme some dirt so we got somewhere to grow.
Tell me your worst, or I got somewhere to go.

Oh what I'd give to find a pair of lips 
That dares to speak up without being stopped.
Cause no good can come while you're still running from
The fallout from the truth you'll never drop.

I get so lonely being out here alone.
Am I the only one ain't hiding below?
Give me some dirt so we got somewhere to grow.
Tell me your worst, or I got somewhere to go.
