Lyrics:

You keep pushing the poison,
My body's always paying the bill.
My eyes are wandering,
You really love to thrill.
You can be so cold.
I'm the one who's worse for wear.
Oh how we could be gold.
God bless this torrid affair.

Every night you're pulling my teeth out.
Every morning I'm picking up the pieces.

Lights burn brighter to the east.
But your hands keeping heading south.
I know if I stay for just one more, for just one more, I know I'll never leave.

They call you the good land.
Child of industry.
But I've been caught with a red hand.
Oh infidelity.
You are a creature of habit and oh how I feel some forming.
You really got a tight grip.
You really got a tight grip.
You really got a hold on me.

I said my farewell.
I made peace with the holes you made,
With the tragedies,
With the broken homes,
With the novelty.
And they moved away, they moved away,
They left me.
It's a slow death in the midwest.

You keep on whispering in my ears.
You keep on whispering, these are the golden years.
You keep on whispering in my ears.
You keep on whispering, these are the golden years.

They call you the good land.
Child of industry.
But I've been caught with a red hand.
Oh infidelity.
You are a creature of habit and oh how I feel some forming.
You really got a tight grip.
You really got a tight grip.
You really got a hold on me.

You're messing with my head just like Dahmer.
But I would still fight for your honor.
You're messing with my head just like Dahmer.
But I would still fight for your honor.

I'm sorry for the things that I said.
All the slander that I spread.
Let's get back together.
You can be my home forever.
From the look of that rising sun I know that you are the one.
Let's get back together.
You can be my home forever.
We know what made you famous.
Who could really, really blame us.
Let's get back together.
You can be my home forever.
From the look of that rising sun I know that you are the one.
Let's get back together.
You can be my home forever.
I'm sorry for the things that I said.
All the slander that I spread.
Let's get back together.
You can be my home forever.
We know what made you famous.
Who could really, really blame us,
'Cause we know what made you famous.
Home sweet home.
