Lyrics

Powder Keg Malone Key C

Broken liquor glass, faded photographs
Papers in a sack - I feel like a powder keg
Never leaving home, heard it on the phone
put a record on and try to forget

I can be careful and I can be kind
Yes, I have changed. Can I change your mind?
Wake up, wake up, wake up
before it’s too late

Purple suede and fringe, on and off again
were the best of friends - the blue fights with the gray
Fire in your name - feet held to the flame
Nothing is the same - I dont care about your plan

I’m so very tired of all of the lies
I try to decipher - I’m losing my mind
Wake up, wake up, wake up
before it’s too late

Inst bridge: Em I A I Dm I G I

CH x4 -
I feel like a powder keg
