Hey turn around man I’m gonna take you downtown
You wanna grab the sac go ahead and do it
My fear and doubt is set in place by a lie
I glorify you that’s the only way of life yeah
I take the shake and slowly surely dissipating
You’re the wrinkles on my face
They will run my old age
I try to understand you throwing men away
All your talent down the drain
And it just makes perfect sense
When I look you in the eyes it takes me right back
Yeah your future has me move on from my darkness
Don’t give in
It’s not real
You don’t have a choice
Choose to feel
Your words insane that old me if I was left drained
I could understand all your thorny logic
I was indifferent I saw the first time come on back
Come on back come on back again your life
And then it’s hard when the local keeps on moving
Got some money and some change
Just to wait for my train
I tried to stop me now I’m locked and engaged
Come on back
Come on back come on back and leave your pain
When I look you in the eyes it takes me right back
Yeah your future has me move on from my darkness
Don’t give in
It’s not real
You don’t have a choice
Choose to feel
We fell in lane in a hotel room with your bible tied up
As you lacked enough food
With stars shaking you all in your bed
Through eleven ???
We dragged you out and threw you into our car
Thrust the pedal to the floor ??
They brought you in and throw those clothes away
?? now my service is delayed
There are consequences for your actions
