True Blue Kid

(album: Heavy Fire - 2017)

Ladies & gentlemen
Please take the time
Consider my loyalty
Before judging my crime
Analyze my demise, my destiny
I can be a real good friend or even better enemy

I've gotta get out of this place
I've gotta plan my prison break
It's too late, it's too late
To reconcile my fate
It's all over now

You know it's over
True blue kid
Young enough to know better and too old to run away
True blue kid
When the lights go out tonight I won't fight another day

Ladies & gentlemen
My perception is poor
Trying to drink myself
Into the person I was before
An emotional investment down payment no interest
Only hank williams understands my loneliness
Ladies and gentlemen
Hope you enjoyed the show
No more for the cheap seats
Goodnight I gotta go
It's all you've had, now you've had it all
The taxi is waiting, sweet bird of youth has flown

I've gotta get out of this place
I've gotta plan my prison break
It's too late, it's too late
To reconcile my fate
It's all over now

You know it's over
True blue kid
Young enough to know better and too old to run away
True blue kid
When the lights go out tonight I won't fight another day

You know it's over
True blue kid
Young enough to know better and too old to run away
True blue kid
When the lights go out tonight I won't fight another day

True blue kid
I'm feeling like a comic dying on my feet
True blue kid
No visitations, no parole, no spiritual release

I gotta go

I gotta go

I got to go

Go
