Joey Briggs Let The Night Sleep Without Me lyrics

If he's still pouring my drinks, I'll keep pouring my heart
Overflowing like I shook it first
I bet you wish you didn't let me start
But there's something about this thirst
That in me, brings out the worst

No one taught me how to be so numb
But we can all use a lesson in being dumb
It comes more naturally to some, Lucky for me
Self indulgence is a sport where I'm from

I'll give you a thousand words
So I can keep your photograph
I should pass out and spare you my story
But the clock never tells me when
So let the night sleep without me again


I got your picture with me but leave it in my pack
If you saw the state of it you'd probably take it back
I meant no disrespect but fittingly represents
How torn and bent I feel inside, like part of me has died

So I got addicted to this life of chaos
Moving place to place, no night and no day
I couldn't stand to stay still for long
Just a child myself with a child of my own on the way

Keep the cabin light on so I don't
Fall asleep at the wheel again
We can't afford to miss another show
So don't let me take my eyes off the road
