Some call it Eden, shattered goals You were tempted by the serpent man While I was busy on a cell phone closing the deal
Call out my name, I've seemed to forget it I lost my name tag at sinner's seminar You were tempted by the serpent man While I was busy on a cell phone closing the deal
Call out my name, I'm wasting away All for a flicker of time Broke and busted fool, now I know what it feels like
But the gods are pickin' steel on the radio Next to the preachers trying to teach us of the fire below And I'm not going back to extremes So we'll drag this asphalt river for the body of a story untold
I said, "Hey little girl, won't you marry me? I'm feeling so alone. I know why."
I said, "Hey little girl, won't you stay away? I'm not losing my best friend, oh I'm losing my best friend, Oh I've lost my best friend to your cause."
Now I hear that lonesome song Now I feel my legs touch the ground Now I hear that lonesome song Now I feel my legs touch the ground
