Structure + Lyrics
Intro
Verse
one chance to show your
face
this one shot all you
get
pass by your one good
thing
lift your head back
shoot and chase.
Chorus
never hear you laugh
like that, so full. not since you were nine.
unsettled, severing
always severing old ties
one last good-bye may
last the rest of your life
Verse
learn your restricted
ropes.
paint a cross on your
left hand.
one good thing signed
away
and with it your only
hope.
Chorus
attention focused on
today.
so quiet slip behind
my back.
unsettled, severing
always severing dead ties
one last good-bye may
last the rest of your life
Interlude
one way trip can work
both ways
and loose ends kept
untied make better friends
the things you buy may
someday leave you
Outro (use verse
chords)
can you say full ride?
i can still see you
around.
