Some day, you and me will escape this crazy town, with its 3AM sirens and fast-talking people, and move back home, where the loudest sound at 3AM are the bullfrogs (because anyone who grew up in the country knows crickets are asleep by 3…) and you can actually see the stars at night and you know your neighbor’s name. I’m looking forward to that.

It can make you cuss, it can make you bleed. And the need to touch it gets hard to explain sometimes. I’ve seen ‘em rise and I’ve seen ‘em fall - some get nothing, but Lord, some get it all. Some just run while others crawl away.
Hold my hand, baby, don’t let go. I’ve got some front money and I’ve got a next show and I’m - I’m gonna need you down this yellow brick road…
