歌手: The Wonder Years
时长: 03:35
Cigarette smoke dances back in the window[00:00:00]
And I can see the haze on the dome light [00:00:04]
I'm conjuring ghosts on a forty-hour ride home [00:00:09]
And they keep asking me what I'm doing with my life [00:00:13]
While my cousins go to bed with their wives [00:00:17]
I'm feeling like I've fallen behind [00:00:21]
Well the highway won [00:00:26]
I'm listening to traffic reports [00:00:28]
One on one coming quietly undone [00:00:30]
I was born to run away from anything good[00:00:34]
An escape artist's son[00:00:39]
With sun-drenched pavement in my blood [00:00:41]
The first thing that I do when I walk in[00:00:43]
Is plan a way out for when sh*t gets bad[00:00:47]
And I've been looking for tears in the screen door [00:00:52]
(Tears in the screen door)[00:00:57]
I've been waiting for another disaster [00:01:00]
(Another disaster)[00:01:06]
I'm terrified like a kid in the sixties [00:01:17]
Staring at the sky waiting for the bomb to fall [00:01:22]
It's all a lie what they say about stability [00:01:26]
It scares me sometimes [00:01:30]
The emptiness I see in my eyes [00:01:32]
All the kid's names[00:01:36]
I've ever liked are tied to tragedy[00:01:38]
And I don't want my children[00:01:44]
Growing up to be anything like me [00:01:46]
I've been looking for tears in the screen door [00:01:52]
(Tears in the screen door)[00:01:57]
I've been waiting for another disaster[00:02:00]
(Another disaster)[00:02:06]
But I was kind of hoping you'd stay [00:02:09]
I was kind of hoping you'd stay [00:02:13]
I keep a flashlight[00:02:24]
And a small knife in the corner of my bed stand [00:02:26]
I keep a flashlight and the train times [00:02:32]
But you wouldn't understand [00:02:36]
How could you understand [00:02:39]
Jesus Christ I'm 26 [00:02:41]
All the people I graduated with[00:02:45]
All have kids all have wives [00:02:49]
All have people who care if they come home at night [00:02:53]
Jesus Christ did I f*ck up [00:02:58]
I've been looking for tears in the screen door [00:03:03]
(Tears in the screen door)[00:03:08]
I've been waiting for another disaster[00:03:11]
(Another disaster)[00:03:17]
But I was kind of hoping you'd stay [00:03:20]
I was kind of hoping you'd stay [00:03:24]
I was kind of hoping you'd stay [00:03:29]
