Well the verdict's out
On this here town
I like to drink
My inhibitions down
I've done all I can to deserve
This thorny crown
And this onry reputation
That I'll never live downI can't rewrite all the words
That have stepped foot on my tongue
And I won't tell a thousand tales
Of how I'm different from anyone
You can fire all your bullets
'Til what's left is an empty gun
Cause I can't do one damn thing
To change the roads that I've run
I've come from a long line of lovers
A long line of saints
But it skipped a generation
And I'm fine with all I ain't
The tears that I've caused
Dry on skin like war paint
And I've never been strong enough
To break my heart's restraintI can't rewrite all the words
That have stepped foot on my tongue
And I won't tell a thousand tales
Of how I'm different from anyone
You can fire all your bullets
'Til what's left is an empty gun
Cause I can't do one damn thing
To change the roads that I've run
There's a lot worse things I could be
Like if I were anywhere less than the wreck that's meI can't rewrite all the words
That have stepped foot on my tongue
And I won't tell a thousand tales
Of how I'm different from anyone
You can fire all your bullets
'Til what's left is an empty gun
Cause I can't do one damn thing
To change the roads that I've run
