Eleanor - The Gathering

I'm mad as hell again One of my spells again Bout time for all of them to ask me if I'm well again Don't wake me up, my love Them folks'll suck it up They'll find another man to give a damn about loading trucks I hate to be like that Mondays just beat my ass I'd muster up a fuss and say how could I not fight back When I get out of bed If I don't feel half dead I'm gonna ride the lines to pass the time that I got left Call me what you want But don't call me no matter what it's for I hate to say it But I hate to fake shit so much fuckin more I may be going crazy Take your baby to the liquor store Just grab the water bottle Pour it all into it, Eleanor I must have blown a fuse Seems that's what old trucks do I'd pop the hood and check Maybe wreck and make the news My momma said one day That they'd all know my name Guess she forgot to mention how I'd get this hometown fame I guess you can't predict A train that you'd might hit And if you could I guess it wouldn't really change one thing I found a cigarette just lying on my chest I don't remember sparking or the scar it must have left Call me what you want But don't call me no matter what it's for I hate to say it But I hate to fake shit so much fuckin more I may be going crazy Take your baby to the liquor store Just grab the water bottle Pour it all to it, Eleanor

Sweet thing, oh it's a sweet thing Oh it's a Sweet thing, yeah it's a sweet thing Walking alone, these streets are unfamiliar I'm a million miles away from home And all of the ways I typically would take To get where I'm headed Are not where I'm choosing to go Oh I've smelled these flowers before Never did they smell so sweet like this No, never did they smell like this Sweet Thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Smell the flowers baby) Oh its Sweet Thing (In the moment) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Wherever you go roamin') Oh its a Sweet thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (smell the flowers baby) Oh its a Sweet thing, It's a sweet thing It's a sweet thing Once in a while, I leave all my fear aside And I shoot up to the sky (ohhh) I've never seen the stars shine like this (no,no) And I've smelled these flowers before Never did they smell so sweet like this No, never did they smell like this Sweet Thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Smell the flowers baby) Oh its Sweet Thing (In the moment) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Wherever you go roamin') Oh its a Sweet thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (smell the flowers baby) Oh its a Sweet thing, It's a sweet thing It's a sweet thing I found it in my mind (found it in my mind) Under California light I've had it all the time (had it all the time) Just shaded from my sight I left the place where I know everyone And I've traded in for the sun And with my fears right by my side Now just watch me fly Sweet Thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Smell the flowers baby) Oh its Sweet Thing (In the moment) Yeah it's a sweet thing (Wherever you go roamin') Oh its a Sweet thing, (Smell the flowers) Yeah it's a sweet thing (smell the flowers baby) Oh its a Sweet thing, It's a sweet thing It's a sweet thing
