Lyrics

WHERE DO YOU GET OFF

Did you mean anything you said to me that day
did you blow smoke in my eyes
was it what i thought
was it all just a disguise
did you take me for a ride?

What about the time
you told me that you felt alive
no else had ever made you feel the same
for once in your life
you felt like someone understood
then you took my heart
and nailed it to the hood

WHY WHY WHY
where the hell do you get off
running when the road
is hot with tar

you better run far
cause i'm just heating up
you're too late
once I get in my car

GO GO GO
Don't ever turn your back
time will be the test of your reprieve

WHY WHY WHY
where the hell do you get off with me?

i remember one Halloween
you wore a funny mask
we laughed and played
like it was make believe
you freaked me out
i had no doubt
this mask was all an act
i guess in some way
you found your identity

you were good at dreaming
that you wanted things to change
somehow life would twist
bring opportunity

i said i'd hold your hand
till i could barely stand
i'd give you anything
your pretty soul could need

If you can't tell by now
you've broken this boys heart
left it shattered
out of order
no more tears
when I restart my engine
calm my nerves, drink my beer

i just hope to hell
that you are far away from here
oh!
i just hope to hell
that you are far away from here
