Jacob John - It's a Hard Place to Shake Lyrics

The road is straight and narrow
Stumble on
You cry inside your bedroom
When they're gone
You were looking for lovers
Couldn't find any other
Seas upon
You crashed your car in your neighbor's
Perfect green lawn
And couldn't lie to your mother
Her love was too strong
Still you feel like a monster
Like you live in a world where you don't belong

And all your friends will tell you all your songs are good
But you know it's all shit
You know

It's a hard place to shake
It's a hard place
It's a hard place to shake

Your best friend moved to Chicago
Isn't that so cliche
Painting songs like the wind
He makes a dollar a day
But you don't know what you want yet
Maybe next week you'll be brunette
The sun reigns over your hometown
Dried up and lifeless grass
But everybody's certain
Going places so fast
And you just try to decide
If you should live or die
Bluebonnets

Oh mocking bird, what are you tonight?
But a tired lonely star
Singing

It's a hard place to shake
It's a hard place
It's a hard place to shake
But do a favor just for me
