Virginia's for Lovers
She said I wonder when it'll be my day Cause I'm not too far from breaking down
And all I've got are screams inside But somehow they come out in a smile
And I'm wondering if I'll always feel this way, this way
Okay, I'm talkin' about a Good girl, gone bad
Crooked world, wrong path
Right Mom, wrong Dad
I sing this song mad, but not mad enough to shoot you
But it just eats me up, like some bbq from Luther's
In the mornin' with the roosters
On the corner with the boosters
And she's the fresh cut and they're on her like sutures
And I wanna talk to her But her Mama has to school her
I wanna see her better
She's the weather of my future
I don't wanna see another hurricane
Baby you can kill the pain
If you just let me explain Trust me I know what I'm sayin'
You will end up on the track of an oncoming train
Stuck in the passenger seat
Travlin' through the fast lane, Damn
She said I wonder when it'll be my day Cause I'm not too far from breaking down
And all I've got are screams inside But somehow they come out in a smile
And I'm wondering if I'll always feel this way, this way
I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on the swing
She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing
"You're making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
Baby, Daddy ain't leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying
"You always say that, you always say this is the last time
"But you ain't leaving no more, Daddy you're mine"
She's piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
"Daddy please, Daddy don't leave, Daddy - no stop it!"
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
It's got a picture, "this'll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha'"
I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
These fuckin' walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear 'em
They're saying "You've got one more chance to do right" - and it's tonight
Now go out there and show that you love 'em before it's too late
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
It turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is on
And I'm singing...
And maybe you've fallen down And maybe you just took the long way home
But baby you will never love you ... like me
And one day this will fade away In the mirror you'll see a smiling face
And standing next to you will always be me, Yeah me
They say tomorrow's not promised today
But today I promise If we don't make our own way
Somebody'll take it from us
Snatch it like rats to cheese
So, lord help me please Cause I rather die
On my feet than to live on my knees
Living like I'm bulletproof
Cocking the Glock and aim and shoot
My future's ever clear a 180 proof
So I open the bottle then swallow my pride
And drink the pain away
I take shots and just lay up then fade away
Dreaming of better days dreaming of better pay
But we got our work cut out for us so we better pray
Pray to uphold the week, not for eternal sleep
But if I die I pray the lord my soul to keep
Tell me about those nights you stayed awake Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you'd rather die alone Than being stuck here with me
One day you're gonna see things my way You gave me so much room that I can't breathe
Tell me about those nights you stayed awake Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you'd rather die alone Than being stuck here with me
One day you're gonna see things my way You gave me so much room that I can't breathe
