The day woke up to violence
I caught my shoelace in the sunset
and I tripped throughout the morning
By now you know
My pistol was never loaded
But bullets hit the air
and they found another man
and he hit the ground.
So let me catch my breath
And before you start crying
Turn off the television and hear me out
Hey Eliza, I'll love you till I'm bones
But I can't stick around here anymore
any minute now they'll come
crashing down our door
So grab what you need
we got to go.
What'd you think would happen?
When the bills are going north
The work is going south
And we're running out
But freedom's in my failures,
as I check myself for holes
And I'm crawling over glass,
I realize.
Hey Eliza, I'll love you till I'm bones
But I can't stick around here anymore
And any minute now they'll come
crashing down our door
So grab what you need we've got to go.
I will find you a diamond in Mexico.
