[00:14.83] So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes [00:20.56] No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight [00:26.16] So deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine [00:31.99] For reasons wretched and divine [00:36.52] She blows outta nowhere, roman candle of the wild [00:43.08] Laughing away through my feeble disguise [00:48.68] No other version of me I would rather be tonight. [00:53.96] And, Lord, she found me just in time [00:57.63] 'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done [01:03.13] I need to be youthfully felt 'cause, God, I never felt young [01:10.24] She's gonna save me, call me "baby" [01:14.07] Run her hands through my hair [01:16.35] She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily [01:19.79] Better yet, she wouldn't care [01:22.28] We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives [01:25.73] Ride 'round picking up clues [01:28.16] We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson [01:31.40] Raise 'em on rhythm and blues [01:34.37] Lord, it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime [01:39.68] Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine [01:45.41] Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside [01:50.77] We'd sit back and watch the world go by [01:54.70] Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust [02:01.55] We tried the world, good God, it wasn't for us [02:07.34] She's gonna save me, call me "baby" [02:10.85] Run her hands through my hair [02:13.37] She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily [02:16.98] Better yet, she wouldn't care [02:19.35] We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives [02:22.67] Ride 'round picking up clues [02:25.17] We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson [02:28.88] Raise 'em on rhythm and blues [02:32.44] [02:54.23] Cut clean from the dream at night, let my mind reset [03:00.43] Looking up from a cigarette, and she's already left [03:06.38] I start digging up the yard for what's left of me and our little vignette [03:11.36] For whatever poor soul is coming next [03:16.22] She's gonna save me, call me "baby" [03:19.77] Run her hands through my hair [03:22.22] She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily [03:25.66] Better yet, she wouldn't care [03:28.10] We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives [03:31.57] Ride 'round picking up clues [03:33.93] We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson [03:37.46] Raise 'em on rhythm and blues [03:39.32]
