Devil’s Drink Lyrics by Crawdad

Ology

2013

[Intro: Crawdad]
He can’t see that she slipped through the cracks (the cracks)
Time has taken all he wants it back (it back)
An angel holds a devil’s drink and makes him think his head will sink
If he just takes the glass, throw it back, throw it back

[Verse 1: Crawdad]
Yo mom, you remember your first date, Your first kiss
The first fist dad ever let touch down on your face
The first time you thought, fuck this place
Your first fight, your first night alone, your first car
What about your first home, your first trip to the bar
How about the first time you ever wished on a star, yeah
And the first is the worst fear, but the last time you left makes it hurt here
In the chest, below the chin and neck
Inside my tinted breath is a crystal clear facade
Waiting to be seen through but now you gone

[Hook: Crawdad & Female Vocalist]
The devil’s drink will hold her wings and stop her flight her children sing
(la la la la)

[Verse 2: Crawdad]
Yo dad, you remember the last day, before you left you used my words like an ash tray
Remember the last day you did coke? What about the last time you watched your kids grow
Probably not you’re quite transparent, I read you like a book
Apparently I overlooked the premise and assumed your truth was the carriage that would take me away
But I was young then, dumb then, not much to say
Lips are sealed and eyes are peeled to find what’s real
But the mind dines on the kill
They like to combine their minds and try to find some type of line to draw between the time they took and what’s left to give, it’s all in the devil’s drink

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Crawdad]
Man he hates his thoughts it’s the melting pot that steams up
As the hellish thoughts get brought to another level
He say she got a smile like a devil
She say she need a bit of lee way ‘fore they get back to the prepaid happiness they won in a sweepstakes
Not too keen, pay close mind to the hope that they both hide to abide by the close line
That they drew while they were both blind, no ties, just four kids
A hubby and a wife that’s some fucked up shit
(man I don’t even know)
And then there was me, the one with the clipped wings
A small town boy trying to do some big things
Mike got a lip ring, Julie got a halo, Tony got a gun
By the time I hit the cradle, nothing seemed right so I put my face in the pillow and I would sing this like

[Hook 2: Female Vocalist & Crawdad]
(la la la la)
The devil’s drink will hold her wings and stop her flight her children sing
(la la la la)
The devil’s drink will hold her wings and stop her flight her children sing
(la la la la)
