lyrics

I broke down in Southern Indiana two days before Christmas Eve
No beer on a Sunday night so I stayed in and watched TV
Something on HBO, a movie from last year
Spent the next six or so hours trying to sleep
Staying warm with the words you wrote on the back of my hotel key
Now I’m locked out and those words keep escaping me

Praying to nothing, praying to something
Praying on these old salted wheels
Take me back to the ones I love and let last year nip at my heels

I’ve been learning to love some strangers my bad behavior making the calls
Drinks are cheap and talk is small like the way I feel after it all
Guitars sound so thin by themselves so I’m trying to find a band
Nobody wants a shaky singer or a guitarist who don’t think he can
Or I might just trade in my things for some dirt on my face
My dreams will only be dreams if she can’t see me in this place

Praying to nothing, praying to something
Praying on these old salted wheels
Take me back to the ones I love and let last year nip at my heels
