lyrics

Tell me straight
Don't twist the words
You paint in grey and
The picture blurs

You got something you want to say
Give me what I want
Or the highway

Do you wanna think about anyone else
Are you gonna love a thing above yourself
Tell me straight
I don't need the hard sell

You said life is for the livin'
Well love is for the givin'
And I've given it all to you
All you have to do is
Tell me straight

When you call
The line distorts
Your voice is distant
Like you're growing smaller

And when you write
To say I'm wrong
Won't you wrap it up in ribbons
And tie it round a song

Do you wanna think about anyone else
Are you gonna love a thing above yourself
Tell me straight
I don't need the hard sell

You said life is for the livin'
Well love is for the givin'
And I've given it all to you
All you have to do is
Tell me straight

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness
