Wain - Sleep, Medicine, Laughter Lyrics

You shoulda got my card from Florida about a day before you passed
Tampa in December's rad, you would have loved the shows they had
If I had any inclination that you'd be dead so goddamn fast
I woulda changed my plane to Seattle and hand delivered it myself

You always gave the best advice
Since we were kids and it saved my failed life twice
Now you're gone but I have a Sleep, Medicine, Laughter tattoo

I'm back in Massachusetts but it just feels so pretend
I still send you songs that I'm proud of since my life's been on the mend
And I just wanted to say thank you for belief in love again
I wish you met my girl, she's my whole world
My baby, my best friend

You always gave the best advice
Since we were kids and it saved my failed life twice
Now you're gone but I have a Sleep, Medicine, Laughter tattoo

Whiskey, wine, whatever and the mania that came with our names
Sleep, Medicine, Laughter is a saying I replay in my brain
And I hate we're the same in this way
Your heart was a place I felt safe from the pain
I'm taking the grace that you gave without faith
While I wait with a flask and an eighth
You're a heaven away

I wait with a flask and an eighth...You're a heaven away

You were the brightest light when I was left by my wife
You were the quiet nights when my brain's not alright
Every morning I look down and your words come alive
Sleep, Medicine, Laughter

You were the brightest light when I was left by my wife
You were the quiet nights when my brain's not alright
Every morning I look down and your words come alive
Sleep, Medicine, Laughter

Sleep, Medicine, Laughter
Sleep, Medicine, Laughter

You're still the brightest light I've ever seen in my life
You're still the quiet nights when my brain's not alright

Sleep, Medicine, Laughter
Sleep, Medicine, Laughter
