"Shiner" lyrics

"Shiner"

Could you please remind me
Of what it is that you think I'm worth
'Cause lately I've been finding
New ways to make it worse

I know the things I have
Are all things I don't deserve
But I guess I'm glad
They're not the things that make it hurt

Sometimes I'm a shiner
A burning star somewhere in the sky
And sometimes I'm a fire
Someone set so they could say goodbye
Some have said they always say goodbye

I need to hear some truth
I feel like everything's a lie
When I'm down I think of you
'Cause it's the only place to hid

I keep my roots ran deep
I keep a pistol by my side
I don't dream 'cause I don't sleep
I just toss and turn all night

And sometimes I'm a shiner
A burning star somewhere in the sky
And sometimes I'm a fire
Someone set so they could say goodbye
Some have said they always say goodbye
