Elaborate Attractions

I got habits that you had
I've been waiting on you to ask for 'em back
They're old, elaborate attractions
Ending poorly, without action

I was crawling one second behind you
I'm just now coming to find you
Hiding your hands in the sleeves of
The cover you were hoping would keep you from

The barrel of another loaded gun
Shooting up the city just because
It's the only way you've ever seen it done
It's everything that's running in your blood

I got messages you sent me
Back when you were educating
Eight-pound hammer, hedge fund boys
With Alabama-Ivy toys

I was sittin' two floors below you
But now I'm coming to know you
We're watching the worry run over
In my eyes but over your shoulder

The barrel of another loaded gun
Was shooting up the city just because
It's the only you've ever seen it done
It's everything that's running in your blood

You got stories Joseph Campbell
Couldn't match in all his rambling
On of hometown herohood
But now it looks you're here for good

I was standing three feet beneath you
I'm just now coming to see you
Made yourself an offer you couldn't do
Then you ran off 'cause you wouldn't choose

The barrel of another loaded gun
Shooting up the city just because
It's the only way you've ever seen it done
Oh, it's everything that's running in your blood

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
The only way I've ever seen it done
It's everything that's running in my blood
