Lyrics Damien Jurado

Damien Jurado

Coats Of Ice

You'll be happy to know

The situation is worse

The endless bottles of pills

That never seem to work

Sleeping in his clothes

And still looking his best

He's so high in the tomb

You wouldn't know he's dead

You look like you could use a rest

You look like you'd be better dead

They're making requests

For songs that you never play

And the sanity lost

Is worth the money paid

How does it feel

To be what you sing about

We all came to applaud

But the ghost said you'd long checked out

You look like you could use a rest

You look like you'd be better dead

You'll be happy to know

The situation is worse

The endless bottles of pills

That never seem to work

She's keeping receipts

On all that you've done wrong

Your selfish efforts were cheap

And have lasted far too long

You look like you could use a rest

You look like you'd be better dead

You look like you could use a rest

You look like you'd be better dead
