Prints on the Gun Lyrics

You can't ever fall asleep

Counting helps but I killed the sheep

But baby you're alright

Choosing words before they speak

Empty minds for the weak

Heavy conscience holds down the morning light

And I

Gotta pack bags and go

The hounds are loose, cops on patrol

Concrete shoes are movin slow, I might not make it cause

Sirens echoing so softly

Tipped em off no time to run

You left me standing over bodies

Prints on the gun

Iron clanks, they close the cage

Future me meets older rage

But baby I'm alright

I'd go down a thousand ways

A written story on your page

Your memory keeps me sane, it's me keeping me alive

And I

Gotta pack cell and go

The bolts are loose, I'm out the door

Heavy chains are movin slow, I might not make it cause

Sirens echoing so softly

Tipped em off no time to run

You left me standing over bodies

I've been caught red handed

Don't know if I understand it

I'm running out of reasons why

Ain't goin how I planned it

Took off and missed the landin

Now I'll be running babe, until the day I die

And I

Gotta pack my truck and go

The steering's loose, but I'm in control

The chevys wheels are movin slow, I might not make it cause

Sirens echoing so softly

Tipped em off no time to run

You left me standing over bodies

Prints on the gun
