lyrics

don’t you ask me where i’m going
if you don’t wanna know where i’ve been

i was sleeping in my car
the nightly opening-up of old scars
in dreams

then you shone a light into my eyes
said, “hey baby it’s me—it’s jimmy wise.
i see you got out of the big house in one piece—
you got no clue do you just how happy that makes me”
well good for you, jimmy, looks like you made deputy
now come and take me in your arms
take me in your arms

you always were a hopeless romantic
but even you gotta know
i’m not looking for love
i’m not looking for love
i just got outta jail
and all i wanna do is try and have me some fun for once
you’ve wanted me since we were fifteen
don’t give me grief don’t give me grief don’t give me grief
just give it to me
give it to me, baby

chorus
they said stick to the shadow
but there’s not enough light to cast shadow
everything is dark inside and out
you know exactly what i’m talking about

do you remember how you caught me?
think you were crying when you cuffed me
in the skatepark at dawn
with blood on my face
shot-gunning beers
with the boys with bad taste
watching them do tricks
half-cocked half-pipes
and me laughing
but tricks are for kids
cause i finally did it
i finally did it
like i swore i would

i watched the light leave his eyes
i watched the light leave his eyes
i watched the light leave his eyes

chorus
