I left my head at home,
Buried in the backyard with the dog.
I've thought of leaving more times than once.
I'm leaving you all alone.
I tried so hard to be the rock,
But all I felt like was a wet sponge.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the son.
I'll never stand and watch you drown.
I'm under a spell.
This isn't what I want for us.
We've held it all together this long.
My spines deep as well.
My heart is bigger than you know.
This family is just a sad song.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the son.
I'll never stand and watch you drown.

This album is great but I'm also going to take this opportunity to be that fan and say when is there gonna be another one. Like I would seriously pay $100 dollars for a new Superheaven album if they charged that much. Obviously they wouldn't but you get the idea. Oh also I don't think I've ever had more fun at a show than seeing these guys on the 10 year Jar tour ellis_boyd_redding
