Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit The Blue lyrics

Don't roll away that stone, girl, leave it where it lay
You think he's coming home but you know it's not today
I think the road will break me and never fill the holes
But every time I'm saved I stop beating out a soul

And I'm too scared to ask the right questions
Too tired to fill the right shoes
So I'll take advantage of the blues
Oh, I'll take advantage of the blue

There really ain't no difference in Michigan and Maine
If you ain't here to see this, I'm missing just the same
Your skin as soft as water, same temperature as me
I'll never know I touched you if you didn't let me see


Then I crawl to meet you if you just stay there
Finally have a thing I couldn't bear to lose
For now take advantage of the blues
Oh, I'll take advantage of the blue

Mark me up so they can see the best of me
And hold me down when I can't find a drink
Dance so I don't have to think
Dance so I don't have to think
Please, dance so I don't have to think
