When I told him I lived this way I lived this way, I lived this way I lived this way, I lived this way I lived this way, I lived this way
The black rinse align your face Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame I swear to god I've seen those eyes The back of my lids when closing mine With clasped hands we shake it out Lay some boots and we walk away I felt slightly connect to him And said now boy, no you own me
So in truth he never wakes up Another day rushing to his death Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous He makes mistakes tells stories to his paintbrush And when the world finally sees his art He wishes that he never would have made it Just escape, just escape ricochets And eclipses faith living in a city With a grey umbrella over your shoulders And you're becoming suffocated by the weight This is what you wanted, huh But you got it all in vein cause you forgot who you are Right as the world learned your name it goes
Black coffee, conversations and a passport When god gives you everything, everything That you ever asked for and it still looks a bit different Then when you pictured it on that back porch And I'm gone world travellet all I got is my songs When the nights start blending into one another and I don't recall Tom Petty in this motherf*cker All I wanna do is free fall I'm caught up, I'm caught up And I'm so tired, swore that I wouldn't Sh*t I'm blinded by this lime light This lime light, it's all night, it's all day These bright lights, these bright lights You can't walk away, don't die here I came too far, I'm too great But I'm too scared and I'm too afraid Afraid to stare this world into it's face I'm almost done, I'm driving lost My eyelids closed, light turns to gret The cameras off, the show is over You close the curtains and just escape
