In this song I'm at a bar
Shooting shots with Johnny Cash
As Patsy Cline sings a refrain
She sings from a jukebox in the corner
I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
Crazy for feeling so blue
Crazy for living here in this life without you

Here in this town,
All the sad songs are played with minor chords
Scriptures engraved in plastic kept in boxes on the floor
Saviors spin right round while we're lying on our backs
Sing the songs of gospel with the headphones on

My friends will sing the best songs
I'll surround myself with stars
Elizabeth the diamond scars like tattoos on her arms
Nights she would wake up screaming
Thought it was all in vein
Who knew four years later, we'd all, we'd all be the same

Here in this town,
All the sad songs are played with minor chords
Scriptures engraved in plastic kept in boxes on the floor
Saviors spin right round while we're lying on our backs
Sing the songs of gospel with the headphones on
With the headphones on

We sing the songs with the headphones on
Sing the songs of gospel
From an old testament written strong
We lay down our scriptures on the floor
Sing it loud and proud my friends
What we bring to yore
