Red Jacket

Fairweather friends
Tell the story how they want it, darling
Cause in the end
It's everybody for their own in this life
And I'm better off alone for this one

None of 'em stay
Threw me off to the sidewalk, darling
Better this way
I rather lick my wounds like a stray cat
They always got me wrong, and I'll take that

Cuz I found my place (my place)
Within all my vulnerable states
Been soothing my pains (my pains)
I'm waving them away... but they're allowed to stay

City lights waiting to ignite
In the midnight of my own spite
Stumbling with a bottle of cooler
Takes a while to get back on track

Won't be everyone's cup of tea
Now you're just a drop in the sea
Got away, set my mind to pack it
Grabbed my stuff and my blood red jacket

Violet skies
Set me off to a new day, darling
I've walked for miles
In my favorite high top sneakers
They're a little worn and stained with liquor

Far from your gaze
Talking shit to my back there, darling
Way out of place
While you all make me the bad boy
I messed you up pretty bad, boy

But I found my place (my place)
Within all my vulnerable states
Embraced my mistakes (mistakes)
I face my demons every day, but I'm gonna let them out to play

City lights waiting to ignite
In the midnight of my own spite
Stumbling with a bottle of cooler
Takes a while to get back on track

Won't be everyone's cup of tea
Now you're just a drop in the sea
Got away, set my mind to pack it
Grabbed my stuff and my blood red jacket

City lights waiting to ignite
In the midnight of my own spite
I've been wandering all alone
Sippin' a bottle of cooler

Won't be everyone's cup of tea
Now you're just a drop in the sea
Been wandering all night long
Rockin' my blood red jacket
Everybody now seem to like it

And they all sayin'
Whatcha doin' ridin' ridin' round the hood like that, boy
Whatcha doin' where 'ya goin' dressed in red like that, boy
Wait a second turn around and let's just have some fun, boy
Take a moment let's stop movin' promise I won't bite, boy... (boy)
