Flushed

One more hit, and I'll stay.
Tonight I'm going all the way.
Will you be there with me
to watch the old me fade away?
Perhaps this is the wrong game
to play when I feel this way.
Even a jack-of-all-trades
can't handle the mess I've made.
It's my very first time
drinking that much wine,
now I'm flushed.
I'm so flushed.
I didn't know what to do.
All I did was think of you.
Now, I'm flushed.
I'm so flushed.
Nothing more than flushed.
I'll be fine, I'm just flushed.
You're in this full house with me.
A pair's what I want to be.
It takes a crying call to see
if what we have can up the ante,
but you show me your poker face.
Don't mind me, I'm just shitfaced.
I have gambled, and I have lost.
I went all in at such a cost.
It's my very first time
drinking that much wine,
now I'm flushed.
I'm so flushed.
I didn't know what to do.
All I did was think of you.
Now, I'm flushed.
I'm so flushed.
Nothing more than flushed.
I'll be fine, I'm just flushed.
One more drink, one more time.
You say no, but denial suits me fine.
I'm right here by your side
while you keep your heart locked up inside.
I obeyed, I complied,
but I'm the joker every single time, so
one more drink, one more time.
You say no, but denial suits me fine.
One more hit, and I'll stay.
I want you to be with me.

Leaving Virginia

Fly!
They throw dimes in the river
wishing they could find
a speck of admiration for
the one that mother lies with.
No sign in circles.
Ripples, black as home.
Now it's still there.
There are times when a brother must stay on his own side,
but, finally, he always said-
I think he said goodbye.
That's alright, 'cause I'm fine. I'm
leaving Virgina now.
I'll write to you whenever I come down. I'm
leaving Virginia now.
I know she's gonna fly.
One is maybe seven,
the other nearly five or forty.
Less tall than tolerant.
More will than evident.
"That's some shiner," they said at church today.
When asked how it had happened
he quickly turned away and replied,
"You gotta watch your step."
That's alright, 'cause I'm fine. I'm
leaving Virgina now.
I'll write to you whenever I come down. I'm
leaving Virginia now.
I know she's gonna fly.
Make him fly!
History is always in the mind of the teller.
I just wish I'd said something,
but we were too young to know any better.
That's why I'm
leaving Virginia now.
I'll write to you whenever I come down. I'm
leaving Virginia now.
I know she's gonna fly.
I'm leaving,
but I never forgot you.
I know she's gonna fly.
