From the upcoming debut record "Somewhere You'd Rather Be" (1-25-2014)
lyrics
Well, here I go I'm losing
Harm's swift fist has kissed me, now I'm bruising
And bleeding, just crawlin' to your door
Beggin' please, can I have some more?
Well, can you hear it comin'?
The end, it dances to the power lines I'm strummin'
And it's hummin' the tune taught by the storm
Singin' please, can I have some more?
Oh darlin' can I have some more?
Can I have some more?
It's like they always say, all roads lead to war
And it don't matter where you're goin' when it leads to what lied before
Baby, all roads lead to war
Well, here we go we're home free
Don't eat the apples that you pick from the country
For the city grows their fruit from trees of gore
So Alfred please, can I have some more?
While here we are, we're cryin'
Trouble only seems to find us when we're hidin'
And we're tryin' to whisper 'neath the roar
Whisper please, can I have some more?
Oh baby, can I have some more?
Can I have some more?
It's like they always say, all roads lead to war
And it's a better world a'comin' when you're hell-bound for the morgue
Baby, all roads lead to war
Oh baby, can I have some more?
Can I have some more?
It's like they always say, all roads lead to war
And it's a better world a'comin' when you're hell-bound for the morgue
Baby, all roads lead to war
Well here I go, I'm sinkin'
I only find some kind of comfort when I'm drinkin'
And I'm thinkin' of a good fix for to score
And seven years ago, can I have some more?
While all this world is broken
The wrong things were only said when I have spoken
But I've wrote them and I've felt them to my core
Writin' please, can I have some more?
Oh darlin' can I have some more?
Can I have some more?
It's like they always say, all roads lead to war
And it don't matter where you're goin' when it leads to what lied before
Baby, all roads lead to war
