"Loraine" lyrics

"Loraine"

Loraine, don't ask me about all I done
Durin' the war
Somethin' in your eyes tells me it ain't over
And the kids don't look at me the same anymore

Probably drink a little more than I should
These god damn pills ain't doin' me no good

Sometimes I get that ol' bullet that I wrote my name on
When I'm by myself and everyone is gone
They say I got nothin' to be ashamed of
All this is good for, God and economy
Quicksand in my heart when the flags came down
Some just make it straight to a box in the ground

They say hallelujah
But I see no end to sorrow

Now they got me back on little pills
The ones that keep me safe
And I don't think too much about those yesteryears
When you knew who I was, Loraine
