The Undertow

Bring me whiskey And a cigarette Bring my medicine To help me forget The memories Like a shadow cast Are a remembrance Of a time long past It’s far too late And I didn’t know I had gotten caught In the undertow Bring me boxes And I’ll pack my things My little trinkets And imaginings There aint much left No gold or jewels Spent every penny ‘Cause I am a fool It’s far too late And I didn’t know I had gotten caught In the undertow Bring me love On a pair of wings I built a fire From my useless things It’s all garbage But this much is true I would trade it For a hit of you It’s far too late And I didn’t know I had gotten caught In the undertow
