lyrics

Her living room looks like a lake
And she will never learn
These are choices that she made
She would rather be stubborn

The third time in four years
The rains came on so fast
She's got her habit, she's got her tears
Now, the mold grows faster than the grass

Pick it up and leave
Life held together with strings and grease
Pick it up and go
You thought you did
But you do not know

He asked me for a ride
Said he was meeting a friend
I opened the door on his side
With shaking hands, he climbed in

He asked me if he could smoke
Acting all cool and natural
I thought the glass pipe was a joke
And stopped the car when I heard the crystals in the bowl

Pick it up and leave
Life held together with strings and grease
Pick it up and go
You thought you did
But you do not know

You shift more than the sand we walk in
And Jesus reached even me
The same sand where he sketched his doctrine
Teach me grace for the least of these
