lyrics

You sit at home, get drunk alone
You sit at home, pass out alone
A sharp tongued devil drawn up in drunkards clothes
I lock shut every door as I watch them close, Lord knows

But now from my clear field of sight
I still just can't believe my eyes
It felt like a ghost town, and I know why

I'd grown so sick and tired inside
I'd grown so sick and tired of my whole life

Skin and bone and tattered clothes
When we turned up at the water, all our fingers froze
They all took off which way the wind blows
But I laid back to feel it on my toes, Lord knows
You might say I was a little bit under prepared
To do that which I thought I never dared
But I swear I'm not scared
I'm not scared

Oh, and we drive, we fly down southbound sixty-nine
Driving fast, we're going ninety-five
We'll get there before the sunlight

Bust ass all day and drive all night
Yeah, we drove to the dim glow of the street lights
Gone for miles and miles and I'm so satisfied
I'd grown so sick and tired of my old life... in style
