Kerosene

Miranda Lambert · Kerosene [2005]

I'm waitin' on the sun to set

Cause yesterday ain't over yet

I started smoking cigarettes

There's nothing else to do I guess.

Dusty roads ain't made for walking

Spinning tires ain't made for stoppin'

I'm giving up on love cause love's given up on me



I gave it everything I had

And everything I got was bad

Life ain't hard but it's too long

To live it like some country song

Trade the truth in for a lie

Cheating really ain't a crime

I'm giving up on love cause love's given up on me



Forget your high society I'm soakin' it in kerosene

Light 'em up and watch them burn

Teach them what they need to learn, ha

Dirty hands ain't made for shakin'

Ain't a rule that ain't worth breakin'

Well, I'm givin' up on love cause loves given up on me



Now I don't hate the one who left you

You can't hate someone who's dead

He's out there holdin' on to someone

I'm holding up my smokin' gun

I'll find somewhere to lay my blame

The day she changes her last name

Well, I'm givin' up on love cause love's given up on me

Well, I'm givin' up on love

Hey, love's given up on me
