lyrics

A bag of clothes, a wad of money in my pocket
A pack of cigarettes, a long car ride
They're throwing punches and I've been struck from the side
I sunk my head so no one could see me
But it's been pretty hard to disguise
It's all over the ground and I can't seem to hide

And we entered on opposite doors
You put your head on my shoulder when the car hit the road
I wanted so bad for that pedal to hit the floor
They tried to talk but I stayed silent
They told jokes and I tried to smile
The only thing that was on my mind for miles

Was somebody loves me
and she'd take me away from here
She cures the blind and says "Move faster child"
"If you stay near you will die"

I looked around and nothing seemed familiar
Right place, right girl, wrong time
So I smoked like and fiend and swore like a swine
I told myself that this is never going to repeat
I'm going home I'm gonna do things right
Please don't ever make me go home

And then all started to sink in
I kept my mouth shut, then again it always is
I've stuttered every word ever since I was a kid
The room was spinning as the telephones chimed
I didn't notice some people walk by
"What's your story?" No you don't want mine.

But your friend made it faster your friend made it go
She made it faster she made it go

Somebody told me the past is going to haunt your mind
So I figured that I'd clear mine out
If you don't remember you'll be fine
For a little while
