about

Five dollars and a quarter tank
I bought my friend some cigarettes
A coke can on the floorboard
And a brain with too much time

A healthy dose of ignorance
A feisty talk that’s met with fists
But what on earths a best friend if they don’t kick you in the balls at least once?

Talk to me, I’ll talk to you
I’ll find the words the whole way through
Don’t worry if you can’t explain
Your feelings mean enough

I been inside my head so long
Forgot this world could look like home
I’ll take another shot of it if it makes you feel okay

I won’t burn it
I won’t burn it down
Just because I’m cryptic
Don’t mean I don’t care

It’s not cut and dry
The cycles will repeat and stay spinning like fractals deep in your eyes
And time won’t heal your feet
When patients is the key
I guess I’ll take it over helplessness

It’s not cut and dry
The cycles will repeat and stay spinning like fractals deep in your eyes
And time won’t heal your feet
When patients is the key
I guess I’ll take it over helplessness

Five dollars and a quarter tank
I bought my friend some cigarettes
A coke can on the floorboard
And a brain with too much time
