Swannanoa Lyrics

i woke up in houston
in somebody's kitchen
the ceiling was sweating
and i was afloat
on a dirty brown river
of heroin shivers
waiting on someone to send me a boat
i went back to charlotte
yes i fell in love with
a girl with a stutter
and didn't love me
she said i don't believe you
i don't believe you
i don't believe you when you're
laying next to me
so i went down to tampa
to find me an answer
but it wasn't coming
and neither was she
so i tried swannanoa
where nobody knows me
got so goddamn lonesome
that i had to leave
i looked death in the face
it was only my father
if i had known all along
i wouldn't have bothered
with being afraid
with being a coward
and trying to fool
some mysterious power
cause i don't believe it
i don't believe it
i don't believe it when it's
laying next to me
no i won't believe it
i won't believe it
i won't believe it til it's
laying next to me
