Hands Up

Two months on and two months off
There are no signs, that this will stop
A sinking spell, no time to waste
Always looking left, avoid mistakes
This time, all on, the line

The river cuts right through my soul
Years of highs and deadly lows
Sadly smiling, gentle blow
Endless years and time to go
I stay, my way, no way

Daylight's fading
There's no debating
That I've spent too much time
In this lie
I'm in, I'm caught, hands up, let's talk

I walk around with bills to pay
My middle name is washed away
I got no children to carry me on
As I play my part, new city, new con
It's on, I'm gone, too long

Daylight's fading
There's no debating
That I've spent too much time
In this lie
I'm in, I'm caught, hands up, let's talk

My mother thinks I'm crazy
All these happenings and maybe's
My father thinks I've gone too far
But he doesn't know half the things
I've burned in tar
In my name, forever, a guessing game

Oh now I walk around with bills to pay
My middle name is washed away
Got no children to carry me on
As I play my part, new city, new con
It's on, too long, I'm gone

Daylight's fading
There's no debating
That I've spent too much time
In this lie
I'm in, I'm caught, hands up, let's talk
I'm in, I'm caught, hands up, let's talk
I'm in, I'm caught, hands up, let's talk
