lyrics

Who’s that man in the mask always holding me back
What’s at the other end of town where nobody is around
A sleepy little town with a crooked smile
Gets a little wild when the locals come by
Do you wanna know how we like to get high?

Once you go down that road
Nobody gonna know

What brought you back into town?
She says “truancy”
Well what put you back into jail?
“Methamphetamine
And I got my two kids back at the hotel room”
Lifting up her shirt, two names tattooed
“You like what you see? Well there’s more of me…”

Once you go down that track
You ain’t never coming back

Brother why you sleeping on your couch?
He says “her husband’s back”
Well brother why’s he living in your house?
“Cause I’m a maniac
And I just got reunited with my mom
If you want she can get you some valium
Would you let her sit in with the band for a song?”

Once you go down that track
Nobody ever coming back
