[offset:-100]
[00:08.59]Drivin’ up the coast
[00:10.03]To find a version of the truth
[00:12.77]Left the backdoor swinging
[00:14.21]Like a dirty little sleuth
[00:17.11]The truth is I have never felt half this alive
[00:21.11]Now it’s time to dance upon the grave called 45
[00:29.64]Jacked up on some Kerouac and surely bullet proof
[00:33.82]The girl who taught me what to do was missing her front tooth
[00:38.00]Gentle as a storm inside your mental health
[00:42.26]I wanna find the answer
[00:43.79]But I just can’t find myself
[00:50.59][01:53.91][02:57.28]I say so long
[00:52.28][01:55.38][02:58.81]To the way I played
[00:54.45][01:57.86][02:14.94][03:01.23][03:18.26]The way I played inside of yesterday
[00:59.10][02:02.25][03:05.70][03:22.75]Hey let’s run around
[01:03.38][02:06.51][03:09.87]The great escape from out of my hometown
[01:11.99]Later I would look for love inside a woman’s dorm
[01:16.00]A couch to keep me humble and her breath to keep me warm
[01:20.13]Ophelia was the girl that I was feeling for
[01:24.57]Come to realize it was me who was the whore
[01:32.70]A captain lost himself inside a 40 year old skull
[01:36.99]The drink of choice was knowledge
[01:38.83]And we always wanted more
[01:41.33]Drunken sailors seeking their Geronimo
[01:45.44]Instead they found the things that they really didn’t wanna know
[02:10.99]Country roads
[02:12.38]Would never let me stay
[02:36.38]A devil’s growl and cat’s meow were blended into one
[02:40.35]Termites called suburbanites were eating all the fun
[02:44.38]A juggernaut of comedy and blasphemy
[02:48.69]I wanna stop the madness but I think it has to be
[03:14.21]Country roads would never let me stay
[03:26.85]The great escape from out of my hometown
