Inmates - The Good Life[00:00:00]

When you said you loved me[00:00:14]

Did you really love me[00:00:18]

Did the words just spill out[00:00:22]

Like drool on my pillow[00:00:26]

'Cause I was naked when you said those words[00:00:30]

But I felt covered in your whispered worship[00:00:38]

And as you pass out fast on my shoulder[00:00:46]

I imagine a child[00:00:54]

Waiting so sad and still for his mom to arrive[00:00:59]

Did she leave you an orphan[00:01:06]

In that big brown leather chair[00:01:10]

Said don't you move a muscle kid[00:01:14]

I'll be back in twenty years[00:01:18]

You were scared you were lonely[00:01:21]

But you must have been aware[00:01:25]

Life is a series of callouses[00:01:30]

This is just another layer[00:01:33]

So build them up tough it out[00:01:37]

Yeah that's your skin[00:01:41]

Don't let anyone under there[00:01:43]

When you said you needed me[00:02:00]

Did you really need me[00:02:04]

Or was it just someone[00:02:08]

Oh you'd take anything[00:02:11]

Am I first on that list of yours[00:02:15]

Or am I second or third[00:02:20]

So who's that ahead of me some harlot from Pittsburgh[00:02:23]

Or Detroit Santa Fe or San Diego[00:02:32]

I know you're so alone[00:02:40]

But how much affection does one guy really need[00:02:44]

Did you date a lot in high school[00:02:51]

Were you always chasing girls[00:02:55]

Couldn't you find some young valentine[00:02:59]

To steal your heart for good[00:03:03]

Were you content or contemptible[00:03:07]

Are your memories pleasant[00:03:11]

Or is it a string of endless flings[00:03:15]

Of bitter resentment[00:03:19]

Seems that what you want and what you need doesn't mean a thing[00:03:22]

We're just here for the taking[00:03:28]

When you said you'd hurt me[00:03:45]

Did you think you'd hurt me[00:03:49]

Are you really that cocky[00:03:53]

Yeah what a heartbreaker[00:03:56]

Well I've got my armor[00:04:00]

Yeah I've been through some battles before[00:04:04]

And I met your old girlfriend[00:04:08]

She said baby don't bother[00:04:12]

She told me you told her you'd hurt her[00:04:17]

Funny how familiar[00:04:25]

So how much of this relationship was rehearsed[00:04:29]

Did you act out as a child[00:04:36]

Were you always crying wolf[00:04:40]

Attention starved you tried too hard[00:04:45]

Just to get someone to look[00:04:48]

Now you're the wolf in secondhand clothing[00:04:52]

I'm the sheep in a pleated skirt[00:04:56]

It's an awkward form of payback[00:05:00]

But if it works for you it works[00:05:04]

It's that I recognize you're off white lies[00:05:07]

Still I lie beside you[00:05:12]

And that's what really hurts[00:05:14]

When you said you'd leave me[00:05:30]

Why haven't you left me[00:05:34]

What are we still doing here[00:05:38]

So desperate for company[00:05:42]

There's a greyhound on Jackson Street[00:05:46]

There's an airport in Council Bluffs[00:05:50]

Hell there's a car in the driveway[00:05:54]

Fifty ways to get lost[00:05:58]

But as I hold you and listen to you sleeping[00:06:02]

I'm starting to wonder[00:06:10]

If I really believe that you'll ever really leave[00:06:14]

Would you leave me an orphan[00:06:22]

In your big brown leather chair[00:06:25]

The one you lugged around[00:06:30]

From town to town for all these years[00:06:32]

It's a trophy of your childhood[00:06:37]

Like a shark tooth or gator skin boots[00:06:41]

But this one holds you prisoner[00:06:45]

It holds me prisoner too[00:06:49]

What we need to set us free[00:06:53]

Is to let go of each other[00:06:56]

Let go of everything[00:06:59]

When I said I loved you[00:07:15]

It was because I loved you[00:07:19]

When I said I needed you[00:07:23]

Well I really need you[00:07:27]

Yeah I guess you hurt me[00:07:30]

For once you're a man of your word[00:07:35]

Well guess what I'm leaving[00:07:38]

I can't be your prisoner[00:07:42]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:07:46]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:07:54]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:02]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:10]

I can't be your prisoner[00:08:17]

I can't do it I won't do it[00:08:19]

I can't be your prisoner[00:08:25]

I can't do it oh no I won't do it[00:08:27]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:33]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:40]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:48]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:08:56]

I can't be your prisoner oh no[00:09:03]

I can't be your prisoner[00:09:11]
