I remember my daddy's breath,
Mixed with urine and cigarettes,
I remember mamas vodka kisses
It brings me back whenever I touch your lips
You're always working on your life long suicide
and I'll be watching from the outside
You just keep drinking bulleits ‘til the day you die
and that lone ice cube still looks you in the eye
We’re a doomed waltz, on a sawdust floor.
We’re a toxic two-step and I'm showing you the door.
There ain't no right, and there ain't no wrong.
Just this old broken heart, and this love song.
You pulled into my life one day
full of truck stop laughter and a spring rain.
I chased you little for a lot of years,
I never thought you'd leave me for cocaine and fear.
Can't face what you can know,
And I’m sorry baby but I gotta go
No you can’t face what you can’t know
And I still love you baby but I've gotta go
We’re a doomed waltz, on a sawdust floor.
We’re a toxic two-step and I'm showing you the door.
There ain't no right, and there ain't no wrong.
Just this old broken heart, and this love song.
Some are going to say that it’s a good thing
but they don't know what you’ve done to me.
I’m wanderin’ this world from the right to the left
and I still hear your name on my sleeping breath.
If only one time I could hear you say,
I love you baby i'm coming back today.
But your love is silent and your passion gone
and I'm rolling like a train wreck through this old ghost town
We’re a doomed waltz, on a sawdust floor.
We’re a toxic two-step and I'm showing you the door.
There ain't no right, and there ain't no wrong.
Just this old broken heart, and this love song.
