Dangerous when you drink
But I'm not scared 'cause I've known you forever
Oh I'm not scared 'cause I've known you forever
And you're looking for a fight
So I take away your pocketknife
So I take away your pocketknife
And you're nodding off on me
Oh, my shoulders carry the weight
Oh, my shoulders carry the weight
And you cry at the end of the night before you fell asleep

And when you die, heaven will burn
No one sets a fire like yours
When the comets hit the earth
You're asleep with bourbon on your shirt
Oh you're sober as a flower (rising with the sun)
And you're drunk like hell's thorns (burning up again)
Oh you're lovely like your mother (saint among men)
But your demons will return

Your fingers shake like earthquakes
And you're tearing us apart
Oh you're tearing us apart
And I hope for better mornings
Where we remember how we start
Where we remember how we start
And the world alight and heads pounding
I'll find you in the dark

When you die, heaven will burn
No one sets a fire like yours
When the comets hit the earth
You're asleep with bourbon on your shirts
Oh you're sober as a flower (rising with the sun)
And you're drunk like hell's thorns (burning up again)
Oh you're lovely like your mother (saint among men)
But your demons will return
