Glass Half Empty Town

Same gas station. Same gone girl.

Verse 1 Population sign got a bullet through the zero Diner ain't been a diner since the war Pastor calls it faith, the kids call it hell The mayor calls it heritage and tries to sell Nobody's leaving 'cause nobody can Tank costs more than the value of the man Saturday night's the same five bars Same five fights, same five guitars

Chorus Glass half empty town Drinks it down anyway The bottom ain't a problem When the bottom's where you stay

Verse 2 Loved a girl by the dry creek bed She got out, found a guy named Fred He don't know what it took to leave She still calls me on her birthday eves I tell her the place is just the same Just a little quieter with her name She says I should pack a bag and go But this town's got a hook in my soul

Chorus Glass half empty town Drinks it down anyway The bottom ain't a problem When the bottom's where you stay

Bridge There's a beauty to a thing that don't pretend To be more than what's already at the end The dust here knows my given name And maybe that's enough to claim Glass half empty town Drinks it down anyway The bottom ain't a problem When the bottom's where you stay

Outro Where the bottom's where you stay
