The Flight (Lincoln to Minneapolis)
("I'm asking you one question
Do you want me to sign away the rights
As a father to my daughter
So that you'll leave me alone
And let Blue be happy?
Everything is-"
"She's so happy, I wish you knew that"
"She is happy, I know of it-"
"She's such a happy girl"
"I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm asking if, just, a harder one-"
"I think that, you, why
I don't think you're ready for a family, Justin"
"I'm not ready for a-"
"And when you are, I hope that you have one with
With somebody that, that you treat much better than you do us
But I think at this point you
Should probably acknowledge the fact that..."
"That?"
"You have failed miserably")
No joke took a breath and then awoke
I was standing in an airport looking like a joke
Saying "Sir, can you help me?
Ma'am could you please?"
So they led me to the pay phone
Flaggin' down the police
"Mr. Officer I know who I am, but the rest of me
My memory, I just don't understand
I do know that I'm unsafe, man with a plan
Of gettin' on a plane
Fly away to kill a man"
Like a freight train threat to myself
I gotta history of blackouts, bad mental health so
Both cops each arm alarm
No harm disarm pat down do the body check
Next thing I wasn't walking on the airfield
Back seat I was headed to the hospital
I'm sorry for the drama that I bring through the screen
He said, "Son you did the right thing"
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
But you can stand with your dick in your hand?
You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
But you can stand with your dick in your hand?
You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey, yeah
One
I was faithful to the wife and now we're separated
Used to try to win her back I underestimated
Like a stone sinks down into the complicated fact
That you gave that ass up and never fucking dated
See you're better than that!
You're a diamond, he's a rough real tough, man
Call a brother back
Just a pussy with a dick
Stand up and be a fucking man
Hiding from the husband
Scared to make a peep and
Livin' up in Lincoln
Now I'm in the deep end
Think I'm gonna break in smash your whole face in
Cut you up with lemon juice
And watch you try to fuck then
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
But you can stand with your dick in your hand?
You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
But you can stand with your dick in your hand?
You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey
Is that beat up?
Is that beat up yet?
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
Is that beat up?
Is that beat up yet?
Ha, ha!
I wish that I were man enough
To turn my back and leave
To forget all the tricks you pull
And hide them in my sleeve
I know what's best for table play
I know what's best for me
I know this life is way too short to let you kill a dream
I know you're capable to only love me when I'm there
I know it's hell to keep the peace
Inside your heart and head
But I'm always gone and what you're left with is my song
You're sick of listening to anything turn me off instead
You used to call me cool, believed in what I'd say
Never seen me as a failure or a mother fucking fake
But over time we changed into this little ball of hate
We shared a bedroom
But the bedroom had a bed we never made so
I'm done with holding this in
I'm done with being a friend
I'd like it all to just end like brand new ink on a pen
No one can stop me
Try to stop me
Try to stop me
Try to stop me
Ha, ha, ha, ha!
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man
But you can stand with your dick in your hand?
You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey
Please help me understand
Why you can't talk man to man

You're acting like a pussy, man!
Hey, hey

Yeah
