|
Come hell or high water |
|
The former asked the latter |
|
Oh how it starts |
|
The sun makes it surrender |
|
That's when we make our move across the earth |
|
So I pull myself together |
|
I threw my finest shoes inside my car |
|
The mark I left on this world |
|
Was cigarette butts thrown across the floor |
|
The mark I left upon the world |
|
Was cigarette butts thrown across the floor |
|
I cut my teeth on rock and roll |
|
Down silver streets and avenues of gold |
|
The boys we know of Illinois |
|
Your voices are still ringing in my ears |
|
The vultures have descended on |
|
The undefended powders on the mirror |
|
I will follow you |
|
I will follow you |
|
I will follow you |
|
Wherever you will go |
|
All I can say in defense |
|
Is maybe we should have taken the chance |
|
I guess you were right |
|
Gimme gimme gimme gimme some more |
|
Of those household drugs that we can afford |
|
The boys and girls relentlessly |
|
Are screaming from their lungs, they go |
|
Gimme gimme gimme gimme some more |
|
Of those household drugs that we can afford |
|
The boys and girls relentlessly |
|
Make beeline exits for the streets |
|
For the company of the ones we keep |
|
All I can say in defense |
|
Is maybe we should have taken the chance |
|
I guess you were right |
|
All that we can defend lately |
|
All that I can change with the wind |
|
Maybe it's time |
|
Maybe it's time |
|
Maybe it's time |
|
Maybe it's time |
