Gravelweed lyrics

I wish that I could be angry, punch a hole in the wall
Drink a fifth of cheap whiskey and call and call and call
But that ain't me anymore, baby, never was, to tell the truth
I just saw it in a movie and thought that's what I was supposed to do.

I was a gravelweed, and I needed you to raise me
I'm sorry the day came when I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today.

I wish that I could be angry, I wish I didn't understand
I said your skin was like water and let you flow right through my hands
Is there a love that's not crazy? is there a life that's not a lie?
All I know is that I had to go, you know why, why, why...

I was a gravelweed, and I need you to raise me
You couldn't reach me once I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today.

I was a gravelweed, and I need you to raise me
You couldn't reach me once I felt like I was raised
And now that I live to see my melodies betray me
I'm sorry the love songs all mean different things today.
