Warren Brothers - Surviving Emily lyrics

rate me

Beyond the cost of diesel fuel

And the tearing down of my old high school

I still think about her

The nation's rising deficit

My fatal crave for cigarettes

They all make me think about her

My life's one big catastrophe

So don't expect too much from me

I'm just hanging on, surviving Emily

My T-shirt that she always wore

Her make-up in the bathroom drawer

I can't get away from her

Her perfume on my pillow case

When I close my eyes, I always see her face

Sometimes I wish I were blind

My life's one big catastrophe

So don't expect too much from me

I'm just hanging on, surviving Emily

Emily can you hear me?

I'm callin' out your name

Rescue me from these lonely days and sleepless nights

They're driving me insane

I tried to stop this endless search

Even started going back to church

But I still feel the same

And my friends all say I'm doing fine

It's just gonna take a little time

Oh yeah, northing's changed

My life's one big catastrophe

So don't expect too much from me

I'm just hangin' on, surviving Emily

Just hangin' on, surviving Emily

I'm really hangin' on, surviving Emily

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm really hangin' on, surviving Emily

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm really hangin' on, surviving Emily, oh yeah
