Casualties Of Cool - Forgive Me

Lord, keep these mouths from longing,
Keep, these walls from falling.
I put my time in plenty.
Provide for my family.
Or have I?
Have I been remiss?
Her heart is cooling on me. (On the road again)
We confer through our baby. (On the road again)
He's walking talking New Orleans. (On the road again)
What am I to my family? On the road again.
Oh, have I been remiss?
And we've lived behind walls that have made us alone
Searching for pieces that may be a home
How in the world is another one gone?
Howling the words:
Down, down, down...
Lord, keep these wheels a turning, I'm always rolling
Keep, these roads from burning.
She's walking talking, louder again
I put my time in. Spare me.
It's never stopping, you know
Have mercy. Forgive me.
So, trip the path unbeaten.
Its all I know to give them.
Whisper a prayer in tatters
And hope it matters.
I hope it matters.
And we've lived behind walls that have made us alone
Searching for pieces that may be a home
How in the world is another one gone?
Howling the words:
Down, down, down...
