I'm mostly sober these days, I don't know what you heard
I only drink onstage, I only smoke to burn
Away the frivilous things, to ride the syllable swings, to fight the urge to go swimmin in the criminal springs
I'm mostly happy these days, don't know if you read
Between the lines I wrote, and the lines I dread
To cross over it's a long way back, when I'm sunk in the saddle and I'm circlin the cul de sac
I mostly understand why you couldn't stay
Why the best of you, you went and took away
Girl those eyes they be shinin like a cigarette, you light 'em up I breathe 'em in till there's nothin left
So don't believe the hype or the flowing hyperbole
Mighta done the crime, but I never did the perjury
Wait for the dust cloud to settle on the rhetoric
Even if ya rush now, you'll never get ahead of it
I tip my cup, I tip it on over
No I ain't got luck, I'm just a three leaf clover
I keep my feet on the narrow and the straight
And I ain't too stoned to say
I'm mostly sober these days
I'm mostly sober these days, don't know what you seen
I only drink to sleep, I only sleep to dream
Away the cries and the calls I been listenin', put a hole in the walls I'm imprisoned in
I'm mostly lonely these days, don't know where you went
Who you call your friends, How your time gets spent
My last on a ticket back home, A one way trip down an east bound road
I'm mostly crazy these days, when I think of you
While the earth it shakes, girl your aim stays true
Bullseye, honey right down the center of, straight shot through the heart of a sinners love
