3 Sisters

I pick you up inside a hopeless prayer I see you, beholden to nothing I make a living crying, "It ain't fair" And not budging I don't see why you would lie It was never the love you wanted It's a state of mind you designed You get everything that you want You might get lost in the moment Take it easy on your opponent It plays on my mind, how the time passing Covers you like a friend I don't see why you would lie It was never the love you wanted It's a state of mind you defined You take anything that you want If you're not living, then you're dying Just a raw nerve, satisfying Some futile bottom line, all my life I've been Running from what you want You drive like you're wanted in four states In a busted truck in Opelika Your bad reputation carries And I'm just like ya Try to justify and scrape by I was always the one unsteady And it's a state of mind, you malign And you don't get caught up in much I'm defenseless against the sales pitch Am I your moat or your drawbridge? It plays on my mind, how the time passing Holds you like pocket change I don't see why you would try It was never my love you wanted It always mystifies me, the time passing Covers you like a friend If you're not living, then you're dying A lightning bolt, horrifying Unsuspecting sky, all my life I've been Running from what you want
