Tim Karr - Sweet Tea & Violence Lyrics

You can't fight the moment baby
Believe me Lord I've tried
Blind faith and paranoia
Keeping me alive

And the shadow of you still haunts my visions
But I can't shut my eyes
Hanging on to dreams of days gone by
Sleeping in a bed of lies

Sweet tea and violence
You were killing time
While I was bleeding out
It don't make no sense
In my own defense
All I ever wanted was just a little peace of mind

I see it now, please and take your bow
Before the lights go black
You and me been fading out
Like a Louisiana democrat

On empty lines you criticize
That's the way it's always been
You pick your spot, you take your shot
Before the words set in

Sweet tea and violence
You were only killing time
While I was bleeding out
It don't make no sense
But in my own defense
All I ever wanted was just a little peace of mind

Sweet tea and violence
You were only killing time
While I was bleeding out
It don't make no sense
But in my own defense
All I ever wanted was just a little peace of mind
