He wanted to make a difference be understood right? Wanted to go the distance wanted to live that good life Put some work on that wood jumped and took flight Left his hand writin' in that book what that look like? Happy mess is the reach touch and manifest it Caught between respect your momma And them battle weapons Lost your adolescence at them intersections Spread them wings And you're gonna need some landin' lessons The sun is gonna burn them feathers Lost track of time tryin' to ride the bender Used to have an agenda but really why remember? Doesn't matter when your head's in A bottle somewhere in tribeca Or maybe you sedate it up in silverlake Cheatin' fate first rate feelin' great Tryin' to turn a first date Into a friendly game of kill the snake Can't wait to get her face against a pillow case
Progress that came with a cost Rejoice for the rain that will wash Multiple choice you can stay on that cross Or grab it by the arms and break 'em off
The wheels are stopped done so let me off Deal the cards but already lost Kill me now just to get applause Steal the shot run and set it off I feel and I fear and I want and I can't break away
If they buy it for you how you not gonna drink it? If they fry it for you how you not gonna eat it? If they throw it to you how you not gonna hold it? Touch it taste it love it and f**k with it a moment? Every city's the same scene gangrene Vampire's lookin' at your veins fangs craving Interchangeable hair similar name jeans Faux-made take charge and late start playthings It ain't harder to tell They rebel to celebrate the day their martyr had fell Now meet him at the bar 'cause it's part of the sell Felt at peace leavin' pieces of his heart at hotels Stepped in with his next new best friend On the bed's edge loadin' up on the weapon Tryin' to win big all bets in Now pull the bedspread back and pop that essence
The wheels are stopped done so let me off Deal the cards but already lost Kill me now just to get applause Steal the shot run and set it off I feel and I fear and I want And I can't breakaway.
