Greater Charlotte
I'm going out today
I'm gonna gamble with the few lives I have left
Before you went away
You went and rearranged the contents of my chest
Now there's a hole
The size of greater Charlotte
There's a moon that makes the ocean ebb and flow
There's a note
Left on the blood-stained carpet
Back later babe, I'm going out for smokes
It had a roomy vibe
Except for the baggage that a previous tenant left
And then you arrived
And went and realigned the contents of my chest
There's a hole
The size of West Virginia
There's a church bell and a graveyard full of ghosts
You never know
How the dark gets in you
Years later you're still shoveling out the smoke
Is this a joke
Is it over
Is it almost over
I'm going out today
I'm gonna gamble with the contents of my chest
There's a hole
The size of greater Charlotte
There's a moon that makes the ocean ebb and flow
There's a note
Left on the blood-stained carpet
Back later babe, I'm going out for smokes
There's a hole
The size of West Virginia
There's a church bell and a graveyard full of ghosts
You never know
How the dark gets in you
Years later you're still shoveling out the smoke
