"Don't Tell Alley" lyrics

"Don't Tell Alley"

Hey God
I'm not sure if you're there
But if you are I need a favor
Tell Alley I'm alright

The bible says you've never lied
You owe me nothing Lord but I
Thought that maybe just one time

Don't tell Alley that without her
I've been stoned every hour
I've killed damn near every flower that she's grown
That the babies miss their mama
I don't know how to be a father
Without her gentle heart mines turned to stone
She couldn't be happy up in heaven if she knew
Since she's been gone seems my life is over too
So don't tell Alley
Don't tell Alley

Could you tell her I've been
Eating 3 square meals a day
It's been a year I'm making progress

That I've been a perfect Christian
Superman to all our children
And that I'm not a God-damn mess

Don't tell her that I've fallen off the narrow
I'm so full of alcohol it's in my bone marrow
There's a space she used to lay and it
Rips my soul to say
I've been trying to fill it up in shameful ways

Don't tell Alley that without her
I've been stoned every hour
I've killed damn near every flower that she's grown
That the babies miss their mama
I don't know how to be a father
Without her gentle heart mines turned to stone
She couldn't be happy up in heaven if she knew
Since she's been gone seems my life is over too
So don't tell Alley
Don't tell Alley

Don't tell her that I've fallen off the narrow
I'm so full of alcohol it's in my bone marrow
There's a space she used to lay and it
Rips my soul to say
I've been trying to fill it up in shameful ways

Don't tell Alley that without her
I've been crying every hour
I've killed damn near every flower that she's grown
That the babies miss their mama
And I don't wanna be a father
Without her gentle heart mine's turned to stone
She couldn't be happy up in heaven if she knew
Since she's been gone seems my life is over too
So don't tell Alley
