[ Featuring the Night Sweats ]

Remember we were driving through the night
Pretending we were lovers lost in sleep?
I think you said that most of the time I'm right
Let go of the wheel and maybe we'll switch sides

Well, you were crawling out to raise the dead
And the ghost of you never left

Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good, good man

I couldn't find the light myself
It lead to falling down the stairs
And the stitches in my head
And not a lesson learned back then

Well you were crawling into your own wake
All the wounded you left downtown
I can taste your lips and not your name
It stains the corner of every page

Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good, good man

They said they hid you somewhere I didn't know
I dug everywhere through the dust and the mud
I turned it all over until my spade and hands were broken

Remember we were lying in your bed
I could feel your feet against my feet
And the sweat the fled our skin
Ice you rubbed into my chest

And like a fire upon your sleeve
You're gonna burn to put it out
And maybe someday when I can't sing
I'll go back to turning over ground

Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good, good man

Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good man
Tell me I'm a good, good man

Tell me I'm a good, good man
