lyrics

T.V.Z.

Sometimes you feel like Townes Van Zandt, but I ain't never shot heroin
But I've surely been low down, on the darkest side of town.

I hope that my kids never learn, how bad I'm sure to burn
Down in the pits of hell, no I hope to them I'm well.

Sometimes you feel like Townes Van Zandt, and you just know that you can't
Be all the things you dreamed, and its not as great as it seems.

Sometimes you feel like you could die, just to see if souls can fly
Or they're just put in the ground, with the peace they never found.

Sometimes you feel like Townes Van Zandt, and you're so drunk that you can't stand
And your mind won't take a break, and all it does is take.

Sometimes you need a place to run, when you're caught under the gun
With no doors to bust through, and it all comes back to you.

Sometimes you feel like Townes Van Zandt.
