original version on 2009's "Portraits of Poor Traits" by Jeff Beam (jeffbeam.bandcamp.com)
lyrics
get down & move to the pines
and listen up to The Signs
we took the long way for sure
and now we're late for the door
we fell in love with the queen
yeah if you know what i mean
it was the first time we tried
to bad we're empty inside
careful of the peel
sleep behind the wheel
say what you feel
keep what you steal
what you feel
another crushing defeat
we really knew we was beat
they tried to sell us some wine
but we was already fine
they tried to take them away
they knew that no one could stay
we wandered off on our own
we know that nowhere is home
careful of the peel
sleep behind the wheel
say what you feel
keep what you steal
what you feel
as we was nearing the end
the tunnel started to bend
if i could maybe confide
i've found a place i can hide
there ain't no reason for greed
we've everything that we need
up to the rafters we go
so we can see to below
