"I’m Giving Up On Love Cause Love’s Given Up On Me"

So, I would normally scoff at the thought of anyone, god forbid myself, tuning into the CMAs (Country Music Awards)…but they were held last night in New York (represent), and I knew Carrie Underwood was scheduled to perform (so I thought, what the hell). Little did I know that I would come away from the first two hours of programming with both a Carrie fix AND a the knowledge of a great new song/artist!

Check this shit (link to the video) out and tell me Miranda Lambert isn’t FIERCE:-)

Kerosene Lyrics

I'm waitin' on the sun to set cause yesterday aint over yet
I started smoking cigarettes there's nothing else to do I guess
Dusty roads aint 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 you 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 giving up on love cause love's given up on me

Now I don't hate the one who left
You can't hate someone who's dead
He's out there holding on to someone, I'm holding up my smoking gun
I'll find somewhere to lay my blame the day she changes her last name
Well I'm giving up on love cause love's given up on me
Well I'm giving up on love HEY love's given up on me

Too bad that tool, Dierks Bentley, beat her out for the Horizon (favorite new artist) Award!
