Down In The Suck
--words and music by Michael Stanley

A Hail Mary is all I've got left tonight
Now I know how it feels to be the one with a knife at a gunfight
The moon is hanging heavy
As we cross the Rubicon
Ain't no turning back now
Just time to soldier on ...

	And I don't want to stay here but I just can't leave
	The pressure's backing up and I just can't breathe
	Seems all I do is stand and watch the bodies pile up
	Just another day here
	Down in the suck ...

Those good intentions, they don't mean a damn thing
And I don't need me a map
To see what tomorrow's gonna bring
Ain't gonna be no order
Not this time around
The drum keeps banging slowly
And there ain't no standing down ...

	And I don't want to stay here but I just can't leave
	The pressure's backing up and I just can't breathe
	Seems all I do is stand and watch the bodies pile up
	Just another day here
	Down in the suck ...

And you can pray for forgivness
For redemption and light
But I don't see that coming
Least round here tonight ...

	And I don't want to stay here but I just can't leave
	The pressure's backing up and I just can't breathe
	Seems all I do is stand and watch the bodies pile up
	Just another day here
	Down in the suck ...
