Carrie Elkin - Shell Of a Man

 

Don?t knock against me
You?ll find out I?m empty
You?ll find out I?m a shell of a man
Got nothing to lose but a broken heart
Feel free to take it with you
Cause it?s tearing me apart

Faith was never with me
I found it all out early
I found it in the palm of my hand
The old lady said I had a few years left
But I just kept runnin?
Didn?t give the girls my best

Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I?ll always say goodnight

Don?t knock against me
You?ll find out I?m empty
You?ll find out I?m a shell of a man
Got seven angels singin? from a mountain on high
Hallelujah to the man with the short lifeline

Thought jesus never loved me
With a knife hangin? bove me
I?m inclined to stand on bended knee
I got one hand in my pocket so the world won?t see
Where the old lady said they gonna bury me

Oh goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I?ll always say goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight
I might not wake tomorrow
I might not say good morning
But I?ll always say goodnight

Don?t knock against me
You?ll find out I?m empty
You?ll find out I?m a shell of a man.
