Come as You Are

One

I've got some good friends with some loose ends

That remind me of myself

They can drink as much as me

And they can smoke me half to hell

And by the end of these songs

When we bring our asses home

They'll all be thankin' God

That they're not in this pain alone

And this world has been so cruel to me

And it's been the same to them

But I don't mind sharin' my sweet depression

With some boys that act just like me

And a girl who does the same

I don't know how I got here

But I'm glad as hell I came

Come as you are, however broken

And we will see if we can make you whole again

Come as you are with your heart wide open

Bridges that you've burned

They are still there just floatin'

Remember us in our bright eyed days

Too young to go inside

Sittin' drunk on curbs tryin' to get us ourselves a ride

Of the pretty girls who walk down there on Elgin Avenue

Oklahoma sure is quiet, but it has itself a view

And how am I supposed to know the good times that I'm in

If the good is only seen when I'm lookin' back at them

The boys are gettin' off work

And they're haulin' on back home

If I am meant for anything, it's to show you you're not alone

Come as you are, however broken

And we will see if we can make you whole again

Come as you are with your heart wide open

Bridges that you've burned

They are still there just floatin'

I've got some good friends with some loose ends

That remind me of myself

They can drink as much as me

And they can smoke me half to hell

And by the end of these songs

When we bring our asses home

They'll all be thankin' God

We're not in this pain alone

Come as you are, however broken

And we will see if we can make you whole again

Come as you are with your heart wide open

Bridges that you've burned

They are still there just floatin'
