I'm sinking down low
I’m going down to hell
To see some old friends
Cause there’s no redemption for me on this land
But I’ll drink whiskey and listen to the band
Dance with a girl who I can’t stand
Play with her heart like the strings from the band
And when I’m done I’ll be losing again
I’ll drink till I sleep with a gun in my hand
Quivers and shakes and aches are all I feel now
I’m going down low don’t plan on rising again
And I’ll go and I’ll go without any friends
Cause the bottle is warm and the river looks sweet
But I’m diving deep to never come back to the land
And if my soul rise it will all disappear
Like my fate in a mirror that was never here
I’m going back to hell to see what’s there
And I don’t mind if it all disappears
Like the river that runs I was already there
And nothing can save me no way no how
So I’ll dance with the demons
And we’ll all have a cheer
Think I might have a beer
Drown in that river
But I was already there
