I Ain't Jumping Bail (Or Breaking Free) - Teley Irons

I want a normal life Just like a newborn child I am a lover hater I am an instigator You are an oversight Don't try to compromise I learn to love to hate it I am not integrated Just call my name You'll be okay Your scream is burning through my veins Sooner or later You're gonna hate it Go ahead and throw your life away Driving me under Leaving me out there Go ahead and throw your life away You're like an infantile I knew it all the while You sit and try to play me Just like you see on TV I am an oversight Just like a parasite Why am I so pathetic? I know you won't forget it Just call my name You'll be okay Your scream is burning through my veins Sooner or later You're gonna hate it Go ahead and throw my life away Driving me under Leaving me out there Go ahead and throw my life away Sooner or later You're gonna hate it Go ahead and throw our life away Driving me under Leaving me out there Go ahead and throw our life away Throw our life away Throw our life away

I'm beginning to hear voices and there's no one around Now I'm all used up fields are brown I went to church on Sunday and I saw her go by My love is taking such a long time to die And I'm waist deep, waist deep in the mist It's just almost like I don't exist Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Well, the wall of pride is so high and wide Well, you can't see over to the other side It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay Even sadder still to feel your heart torn away One look at you and I'm out of control Just like the universe has swallowed me whole Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Now the winds in Chicago like to tear me to shreds Reality for me got too many heads There are some kinds of things that you never can never kill There are some things that last longer than you think they will But it's you and you only that I'm thinking about But you can't see in, and it's so hard looking out Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Well, there's so many stones in the pathway It's so easy to be corrupted in my corner of the world Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's a mud Right over head nothing but clouds of blood I found my world in you But your love hasn proved untrue Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Yeah, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound Now the fat's in the fire and the water's in the tank And the whiskey's in the jar, and the money's in the bank I tried to tell her of eternity in my mind Lord, I need to feel some to tell her kind I'm glad I'm on my, that I'm on my bended knee You got no idea what you did to me Lord, I'm 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound 20 miles out of town in cold irons bound

Hiding in the barroom where I keep my wounded pride Talking to a stranger, digging down I'm open wide All my hopes are shattered, broken glasses on the floor Another lost soul sitting here, needing something more Broken dreams and barstools that's the story of my life I pony up for another round as the truth cuts like a knife Whisky's still my best friend, with the pain I can't deny Walking here and wounded as the bottle's running dry Jukebox telling stories with a soundtrack of despair Drowning out my sorrows, in a sea of smoky air Look around but I can't see a face I know tonight I'm searching for salvation underneath the neon light Broken dreams and barstools that's the story of my life I pony up for another round as the truth cuts like a knife Whisky's still my best friend, with the pain I can't deny Walking here and wounded as the bottle's running dry

I listened to what you said You sound so proud You got nothing to say and You're saying it way to loud Walking around with your head in the clouds And your nose right up your ass You're on a one way street to nowhere With no go to pass You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years They told you what you wanted to hear For a good long time Believing your own self made press Is the end of the line Walking around with your head in the clouds And your nose right up your ass You're on a one way street to nowhere With no go to pass You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years You can't blind the blinded You can't make a deaf man hear The world will keep on spinning For a thousand years

3am and vodka An empty glass a broken heart Nothing's gonna stop you You won't be back and I can't start To build a life without you Or tell you that I'm done Or try to hide the mess that I've become There ain't no getting through with missing you Just one more empty bottle 3am and vodka 4am and whisky An old tv a cigarette She ain't gonna miss me I deserve what I don't get To build a life a beside you After all the things I've done You should see the mess that I've become I'm wrong so I don't blame you Cause trusting me is risky 4am and whisky I've got too much time on my hands Drinking staring at the clock on the wall again 5am it's over Passing out, on the floor Wishing I was sober Nothing left anymore To live a life without you Means I'm already done If you could see the mess that I've become There aint no happy endings There aint no four leaf clovers 5am it's over There aint no happy endings There aint no four leaf clover 5am it's over
