I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawnAnd I’ve been a fool, and I’ve been blind (I’ve been blind)
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I’m always dragging that horse around
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight, I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
‘Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
But it’s always darkest before the dawn -
