I pick you up inside a hopeless prayer
I see you beholden to nothing
I make a living crying it ain't fair
¬ budging
&I don't see why
You would lie
It was never the love you wanted
&it's a state of mind
You designed
You get everything that you want
You might get lost in the moment
Take it easy on your opponent
It plays on my mind
How the time passing
Covers you like a friend
&I don't see why
You would lie
It was never the love you wanted
&it's a state of mind
You defined
You take anything that you want
If you're not living then you're dying
Just a raw nerve satisfying
Some futile bottom line
All my life I've been
Running from what you want
You drive like you're wanted in 4 states
In a busted truck in Opelika
Your bad reputation carries
&I'm just like ya
I try to justify
&scrape by
I was always the one unsteady
&it's a state of mind
You malign
&you don't get caught up in much
I'm defenseless against the sales pitch
Am I your moat or your drawbridge
&it plays on my mind
How the time passing
Holds you like pocket change
I don't see why
You would try
It was never my love you wanted
It always mystifies me
The time passing
Covers you like a friend
If you're not living then you're dying
A lightning bolt horrifying
An unsuspecting sky
All my life I've been
Running from what you want
