Fuck Me To Tears

[Verse 1] Boss said, "Son, you're late again" Cleaned my desk with a cardboard grin Cardboard box and a pink slip folded Walked out slow, pride already swollen Came home early to an empty bed Just a short note where your perfume bled "Don't come lookin', I ain't comin' back" Damn, that hit like a railroad track [Chorus] Well, life'll kiss your cheek, then bite your ear Hold your hand, then drag you through your fears It ain't soft, it ain't sweet, it ain't what it appears When it loves me, it just fucks me to tears (oh Lord) Yeah, it loves me, then it fucks me to tears [Verse 2] Truck broke down on the county line Rain poured through that busted sign Called my brother, but he changed his phone Guess I'm good at standin' all alone Bar tab high as a power bill Bartender laughs, adds it on there still Said, "You pay me when you catch a break" We both knew that was just a waste [Chorus] 'Cause life'll kiss your cheek, then bite your ear Hold your hand, then drag you through your fears It ain't soft, it ain't sweet, it ain't what it appears When it loves me, it just fucks me to tears (yeah, it does) Every time it loves me, it fucks me to tears [Bridge] Mama lights a candle, says a prayer for me (mmm) Says, "Baby, it gets better, you just wait and see" I nod and smile, but deep inside I'm thinkin' If this is gettin' better, why's the ship still sinkin'? [Harmonica Solo] [harmonica cries over a half-chorus groove, steel guitar answering phrases] [Chorus] 'Cause life'll kiss your cheek, then bite your ear Hold your hand, then drag you through your fears It ain't soft, it ain't sweet, it ain't what it appears When it loves me, it just fucks me to tears (to tears) Yeah, it loves me, then it fucks me to tears [Outro] So pour one more, I'll raise it high To busted dreams and one more try If I'm still here this time next year I'll let it love me, let it fuck me to tears (one more time)
