Doomed Waltz Lyrics

I remember my daddy's breath

Mixed with urine and cigarettes

There was always momma with her vodka kiss

Brings me home when I touch your lips

You're always working on that lifelong suicide

I'll be watching from the outside

Keep drinking those bullets till the day you die

With just a lone ice cube to look you in the eye

We're a doomed waltz

On a sawdust floor

We're a toxic two step

And I'm showing you the door

There ain't no right and there ain't no wrong

But this old broken heart

And this love song

You pulled into my life one day

Full of truck stop laughter and the spring rain

I chased you a little for years and for years

I never thought you'd leave me

Crying in this beer

You can't face what you can't know

I still love you but I gotta go

No you can't face what you can't know

Well I still love you baby but I gotta go

We're a doomed waltz

On a sawdust floor

We're a toxic two step

And I'm showing you the door

There ain't no right and there ain't no wrong

But this old broken heart

And this love song

Some are gonna say it's good thing

But they can't see what you done to me

The lights are all broken the suns gone down

And i'm rolling like a trainwreck through my own ghost town

Ten years gone and i gotta say

Your voodoo cut me in the wrong ways

I'm wandering this world from right to left

And i hear your name on my sleeping breath

If only one time i could hear you say

Just wait i'm a coming back to you

But your silence is empty your passion is gone

And my love's gone sour

Since i've burned down our home.

We're a doomed waltz

On a sawdust floor

We're a toxic two step

And I'm showing you the door

There ain't no right and there ain't no wrong

But this old broken heart

And this love song
