lyrics

well i know i heard u say
its a long way back to the palisades
i made up my mind and i got in close
with a hand at ur back and a knife at ur throat
i cut up ur cards after i sucked em dry
slump down and get high
light out towards the state line
with the good sense to spend recklessly
and the gentleness of a hungry vampire bat

its time i move on from this place
dont expect ill be back here
theres nothing in the world that i want but a fresh coat of paint
(not too picky bout the lacquer)
just somethin for the scratches and dents
can u make em lay low a little better?

slept upside down under a tree
with the marble i took from a grave in new orleans
i was dreamin of a score, yeah i wanted revenge
still woke up pockets touchin in the end
down on hot springs road (i just learned to ignore the taste of sulfur in the air)
life's a game of change anyway and i'm rigging the deck in my favor again

the engine goes out on a dead crossroads with no one around
my whole life i never been satisfied
why am i so wrong for filling my heart with something that's not gonna leave me?
