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
