Drunken Angels (Acoustic) Lyrics by Matt Mays

Twice Upon a Hell of a Time...

2018

Well play me anything that makes my heart sing man
Never turn this car around
We’ll set fire to the smokes and drive all night
Out looking for that golden lonesome sound

There ain’t no saints out on the highway tonight
Just a couple lost and lonely drunken seekers
We hear the tires on the ice but we ain’t scared
‘Black Rose’ is blowing out them speakers

Free man now
You’re free
Up in the arms of them drunken angels
Dancing on the moon

Well I’m all coiled up and ready to strike
Like a viper in the grass in the setting sun
Shocked and terrified
Like a sniper in the rough long after the war is done

I miss you in my bed
I miss your heartbeat sound
I swear to god sometimes I can still feel it

And the things I said to you still shatter my head
But you knew me so well that you knew I never meant it
We'll set fire to my smokes and drive all night
Looking for that golden lonesome sound

Free man now
You’re free
Up in the arms of them drunken angels
Dancing on the moon

Tears crystallize on the highway
Sparkle in the sun

It’s not your fault

Free man now
You’re free
Up in the arms of them drunken angels
Dancing on the moon

Free man now
You’re free
Up in the arms of them drunken angels
Dancing on the moon

Fade away
