And now I’m stalled out in that Wyo cold Rawlins Rawlins
Thought I’d sail all my worries on down the road
But it’s a cowboy land I’ve always been told
I guess they knew it was all too good to be

I’m drinking bottle by bottle held up in that square
A femme fatal I dragged through my despair
to
I thought those demons were all now dead and gone
But now they cling to me as they steal my air to

It was Rawlins to Laramie
For the sake of life I just can’t see
l
And both the angels and demons reach out for me
And now I’m rollin’ down the road to Laramie laRamieaRamie

Disillusioned, broken, raw and I’m on my way
Engulfed in drowning my shame I’ll tuck it all away
Visions of it all bleed into my soul
But alas you’re much too far away
Gravity pulls me back to life
And I’m haunted by why I can’t see light
The devil’s knocking down doors screaming let me in
I guess he made some new points and now he’s here tonight

So it’s out the door to see my Irish friend
She lives across the lot, a pseudo Tucky grin
And I’ll crawl if I have to there’s too much pain
I see Atlantis now won’t you take me in

Living bottle by bottle a rattle at my door
A saving grace I’m bathed in a loving glow
But all I can do is just bury my head
I’ve been imploding so long I’m buried in the snow
Now step by step and cry after cry
I look around but it’s hazy and I can’t see why
I’m so convinced to end up dead and gone
But I’ll breathe it all out into that sunburnt sky

It was Rawlins to Laramie
I pulled the curtains ‘cross my eyes so I just wouldn’t see
And both the angels and demons reach out for me
But now I’m rolling down the road to SLC
So it’s out the door to take one hard look
I lived in motionless fire not left unshook
And I’ll crawl if I have to there’s too much pain
I’ll don a cloak of fear and rise out of ash and soot

But it was Rawlins to Laramie
Where I’d find a love, I just couldn’t see
And Broken bottle by bottle I shattered by heart
But I stumbled down the road back to SLC
