about

"When I think about dying, as I’m sure most normal people do from time to time; I often forgo the image of eternal bliss and focus on the gripping fear that my earthly transgressions will follow me into purgatory. Tinged with bitterness, loneliness and that canyon-country vibe - picture me on a skeleton horse riding into Hell… softly."

lyrics

I’ve been keeping up late with your picture
Tore the back right off of the frame
My fingers on the film, painted in blue
June twenty-five, still signed with your name

Still wearing out holes in my boots
Still tangled up blue over you
The mess I have made, the shape I am in
All covered in misery, what can I do

When I get to the gates of heaven
Is there a long list of sins and your name
Do I ride into hell on a horse named nothing
If I’m going down for my sins all the same

Just sold that old wagon we dented
Rocks kicked up, scratched off the paint
Your head on my shoulder, the wheel in my hands
I swore when you left me, I’d never drive again

When I get to the gates of heaven
Is there a long list of sins and your name
Do I ride into hell on a horse named nothing
If I’m going down for my sins all the same

Going through pictures
Of coffee cups and couch cushion stains
I guess somehow, now we’re even
Or even to you, anyway

I’ve been keeping up late with your picture
Tore the back right off of the frame
