Best Wishes (Explicit)

The canyon air spills

Out over the plains

The wind's so dry

When I wash my car

The water doesn't stay

The people at the filling

Station look angry

But they're kind

And they're playing some

Country song about leaving

And I can't help but cry

And it's a long drive home

And we both know I had to go

And I don't want you to worry

But for half an hour

I couldn't see the road

So I'll give you my best wishes

But I'm dying on the interstate

And when I thought I was fine

I pass the towers

Where I started getting

Scared to see your face

But I promised you,"No tears

"And I love you, and I'll call you

"When I get home tonight"

I gave you my best wishes

And promised you it'd be all right

The canyon air hangs heavy

But it fades

My second leaving

But your first time

Coming to my place

And you're crying like your mother

'Cause you're scared that mine

Will hate your living guts

And later you say

She introduced you to

The true meaning of love

But you were hiding your

Eyes on the drive to Glen Rose

I was sick of you getting

Under my skin

And so we sat in silence

Until the love kicked in

And it's a long ride home

And we both know you had to go

And I will miss your touch

But I will never tell you

I need to love alone

So I'll give you my best wishes

And I'll see you

In three weeks straight

I went to the East Coast

While your dog got

Out through the gate

And I felt you follow

Him out the door

And out went the magic

We had before

I'll give you my best wishes

But I don't want to worry

About you anymore

You're here in three weeks

But nothing's the same

You're a mess and I start

To call you by name

And I just don't know what to do

When you say your mother's sick

So we race to the canyon

And we pass the towers

I almost left you at

The bus stop after an hour

Cause I'm growing sick

Of that callous gaze

But I was too nice to do it

And now it's canyon air

And the tension hangs thick

I make a joke but you dismiss it

I wonder why I even talk to you

(Why do I even talk to you?)

But I try to talk it out

Then you started laughing

And I thought that we were fine

But with scorn on every breath

You slam the door

And I follow you inside

But what the ****

Would you have done

If I had run?

And now you're screaming

In my arms on your bed

Baby, what the ****?

I want to kiss you instead

And, God

I hate that you were good to me

'Cause when you suffocate me

I forget I used to breathe

"Just breathe"

I know we're dancing in the kitchen

But I still want to cry

You critique my every move

And tell me to act like a guy

And the rage rumbled

Deep in my chest

I was starting to let you in

And the sun's gone

Down on us two times

And I'll desert you once again

So I'll give you my best wishes

But you are my worst mistake

I swore to be your Aegis shield

But there's only so much I can take

And if I told you what you said to me

Like it was someone else's felony

I know you'd say I don't deserve that shit

Well, here I am in the arms

Of the enemy

(I try to move on

Even when you're gone)

Well, here I am in the arms

Of the enemy

The canyon air spills out over the plains

And while you're looking for your dog

And looking after your mom

I'm slamming on the gas, babe
