Murder By Death - Spring Break 1899 lyrics
rate me<br>
The sun is comin' up over the hill...<br />
Or maybe it's not I can't even tell<br />
But there's a warmth on my face<br />
That isn't the blood<br />
And my tears are turnin'<br />
The snow into mud<br />
<br />
And I can't feel my left leg<br />
But I think it's still there<br />
Did I kill anybody?<br />
Hell, I never fight fair<br />
<br />
What state am I in?<br />
Am I still on the run?<br />
Has it really been so long<br />
Since I've seen the sun?<br />
<br />
My instincts are telling me<br />
To pick up and go<br />
But I can't feel my fingers<br />
And I can't move my toes<br />
There's a drained bourbon bottle<br />
Layin' next to my head<br />
And the piss and the vomit<br />
Are the sheets on my bed<br />
<br />
Is it you? Could it be you?<br />
Don't want it to<br />
<br />
I went out all night drinking<br />
So I took the bait<br />
And I jumped off the interstate<br />
To Highway 8<br />
To the bars full of girls<br />
Who all know me by name<br />
They all drink the same drinks<br />
And they all fuck the same<br />
<br />
Now my eyes are turnin' red<br />
In this hotel bar<br />
And she's breathing out smoke<br />
As she motions towards the door<br />
The kindness of a stranger<br />
Or a trick of the trade?<br />
God knows I'm not the first mistake<br />
That she's made<br />
<br />
Is it you? Could it be you?<br />
Don't want it to<br />
Is it you? Could it be you?<br />
Don't want it to<br />
<br />
I been down and out<br />
I been spit on for so long<br />
I stored my shame in my belly<br />
'till I needed to be strong<br />
<br />
In my last guilty whim<br />
I stole a map and a truck<br />
It's pure chance<br />
That I haven't already been picked up<br />
But from here on the slate's clean<br />
I'm headin' way south<br />
Always heard the girls were pretty there<br />
I got to find out!<br />
Look Ma your son's a travelin' man!<br />
I don't know what I did<br />
But I'll do all the good that I can....<br />
<br />
Could it be you?<br />
Could it be you?<br />
Could it be you?<br />
Could it be you?<br />
Could it be you?
<br><br><br><br>
<br>
