Tom Jane Just Wants His Kids Back

from Bandera II by Bandera

/

lyrics

fail you're six feet deep

i can only see the light of your cigarette
a glance of the eyes between the breaths
it's the perfect location for what you intend
to gather information no need to pretend
that a stitch or a bruise is nothing new
but I guess that's how it goes

oh you talk an honest game but i don't know you
as you turn away asking me to follow you down
these twisted street these makeshift arteries
of your design
I won't I know that you can't stop one bit
the opposite of quit

insanity sets in as you fade through your prime
becoming aware of the awkwardness within your age
like pushing your hands through stone and twine

defined by actions prone to violence
hungered power sought in desperate plights
always honest
always win the prize
this dawns upon me as I realize
there's no point in trying to see your eyes
