Drink Some Milk

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Helmet in the trunk Mud on my hands Name on a list Money in advance I walk through the smoke Like I don’t feel a thing But your eyes stay there When the siren sings [Pre-Chorus] Say it low Say it soft I can’t wash it off I can’t wash it off Count the cash Count the cost Something in me’s lost Something in me’s lost [Chorus] Drink some milk Drink some milk To wash this night To wash this guilt Drink some milk Drink some milk I hear your name I still can’t sleep Drink some milk Drink some milk The black in me Keeps talking back [Verse 2] Hotel room cold Gunmetal skin Another bad deal I was paid to be thin Not a hero’s song Not a saint’s prayer Just a rented shadow With the same old stare [Pre-Chorus] Say it low Say it soft I can’t wash it off I can’t wash it off Count the cash Count the cost Something in me’s lost Something in me’s lost [Chorus] Drink some milk Drink some milk To wash this night To wash this guilt Drink some milk Drink some milk I hear your name I still can’t sleep Drink some milk Drink some milk The black in me Keeps talking back [Bridge] [Half-time, half-whisper] If I fall Let it show All the names I won’t let go No clean hands No clean soul Just a hollow cage And an empty bowl [Final Chorus] Drink some milk Drink some milk To wash this night To wash this guilt Drink some milk Drink some milk I hear your name I still can’t sleep Drink some milk Drink some milk The black in me Keeps talking back Drink some milk Drink some milk I want the dark To leave me now
