Dallas Knows the Reason

Standing out there with your
shotgun girl, you're shooting up the night,
Dallas knows the reason, Dallas knows the reason.
Standing out there with your
shotgun girl, you're shooting it up alight,
Dallas knows the reason, Dallas knows the reason.

And now I cannot quite decide if you were serious
When you told me you were on your way around to mine,
Why am I staring at a blank computer terminal
Again on my Sunday to avoid your call?

I'm not even a massive fan of human interaction lately...
And that's not your fault at all.

Standing out there with your
shotgun girl you're shooting it up alight,
You could be the reason, you could be the reason.
Yeah tin metal cans gunna fly,
You could be the reason, you could be the reason.

It's not a mystery when we are destined
for decline ... that you would feel so sad,
The existential burden everybody dies.
I'm waiting for you.
I can't afford you.
And ...
Moving into your house ... it was the hardest thing.

I'm not even a massive fan of basic conversation lately ...
And that's not your fault.

Standing out there with your
shotgun girl you're shooting it up alight,
You could be the reason, you could be the reason.
Yeah tin metal cans gunna fly,
You could be the reason, you could be the reason.

And I'm sure it's deliberately designed,
I slept on your floor on the last day of 1999,
And a mad social contract that we never signed,
Or saw, or realised was planned for our minds.

Well like any of that mattered anyway,
You're home,
We're renegades ...
In our minds.

I'm not done yet, just understand ...
That you were watching a broken man.
I did my time
And had I been like you ...
I might of shook that hand.
I could've took your paycheque ...
In your bank wasteland,
And I could've built my castle ...
On your shifting sands ...
And hanged.
