GRAVEL
3:32
- i heard the sound of you bike
- as your wheels hit the gravel
- then you engine in the drive way, cutting off
- i pushed through the screen door
- and stood out on the porch
- thinking fight fight fight at all costs
- but instead i let you in
- just like i've always done
- i sat you down and offered you a beer
- and across the kitchen table
- i fired several rounds
- but you were still sitting there when the smoke cleared
- and you came crawling back to say
- that you want to make good in the end
- oh, let me count the ways that i abhor you
- you were never a good lay
- and you were never a good friend
- but, oh what can i say, i adore you
- all i need is my leather
- one t-shirt and two socks
- i'll keep my hands warm in your pocket
- you can use the engine block
- we'll ride out to california
- with my arms around your chest
- and we'll pretend that this is real
- 'cuz this is what i like best
- you've been juggling two women
- like a stupid circus clown
- telling us both we are the one
- and maybe you can keep me
- from ever being happy
- but you're not gonna stop me
- from having fun
- so let's go, before i change my mind
- i'll leave the luggage of all your lies behind
- cuz i am bigger than everything that came before
- you were never very kind
- and you let me way down every time
- but oh, what can i say, i adore you
- i heard the sound of you bike
- as your wheels hit the gravel
- then your engine in the driveway, cutting off
