Oh Father forgive me for what I have done
Drove 200 miles for 6 inches of love
And he shined like the neon In the town's only bar
Slick as the needle and slim as the scar
Oh I lost friends to heroin, plenty more to loving them
Strung out on the highway like we couldn't read the signs
Now that I'm older and burn a little colder
I know how to read between the lines
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
And what I call a love affair
They say it was a death of despair
They say I'll get over him I just need time
I think Jesus sent an angel, stuck needles in his thigh
And the old freight trains, they'll whistle and whine
They'll shake the whole damn house, like they did when he was alive
Oh I lost friends to heroin, plenty more to loving them
Strung out on the highway like we couldn't read the signs
Now that I'm older and burn a little colder
I know how to read between the lines
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
(Instrumental Break)
Oh Mother don't ask me the things I have done
So selfish to fall for yourself in someone
I know that I warned him and always will
I don't think he could have known that it was fentanyl
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
And what I call a love affair
They say it was a death of despair
The only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
Drove 200 miles for 6 inches of love
And he shined like the neon In the town's only bar
Slick as the needle and slim as the scar
Oh I lost friends to heroin, plenty more to loving them
Strung out on the highway like we couldn't read the signs
Now that I'm older and burn a little colder
I know how to read between the lines
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
And what I call a love affair
They say it was a death of despair
They say I'll get over him I just need time
I think Jesus sent an angel, stuck needles in his thigh
And the old freight trains, they'll whistle and whine
They'll shake the whole damn house, like they did when he was alive
Oh I lost friends to heroin, plenty more to loving them
Strung out on the highway like we couldn't read the signs
Now that I'm older and burn a little colder
I know how to read between the lines
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
(Instrumental Break)
Oh Mother don't ask me the things I have done
So selfish to fall for yourself in someone
I know that I warned him and always will
I don't think he could have known that it was fentanyl
But the only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
And what I call a love affair
They say it was a death of despair
The only time I get these guilty thoughts
Is when the pills wear off
