Southern Comfort Lyrics

If you want I'll send you a postcard

To let you know I'm here

I'll be sure to fill it with imagery

And I'll be sure to be sincere



Cause I don't want to be your burden

I don't want you to worry for me

Just know it will better now

It will be better we all will agree



When I don't have to be so many things

When I don't have to be a son

You won't have to waste your empathy

You can do whatever you want...



(oo la la la la oo la la...)



You can try if you want you can build me a house

But don't cry when I go when you knew that I would

It's out of your hands, I'm trying to leave, let me go...



I'll write you one last letter

I'll tie it to a string

I'll hang it from a lantern

For you to find in New Orleans



When you go to meet your Maker

When you go to cut your ties

When you go to drown in the water

That springs eternal life



But don't you know that you are living

You are living inside a lie

When you know it could be better here

It could be better if you'd just try



So mark my words and syntax

When you read my final note

I want you to know the consequence

When you leave this world alone



(oo la la la la oo la la...)



I won't try anymore; I won't build you a house

Won't cry when you leave; I know that you're weak

I did all that I could, you know I tried to give you a reason...



So you can die if you want, you can do what you please

But remember the ones that have to bury the seeds

Just know when you go, you place death upon every life...
