Rocket Boy

歌詞

Headlights and red eyes A warm beer between your thighs Mess of pills, Hollywood hills The red lights read me my rights Going in a circle, getting tighter every turn Think you're getting better but you're never quite sure Say it's all ahead of you, how far can you see? You're living on your knees Driver, please find your feet The light's green but you spaced the keys You're going fast but it won't last You're all speed and no gas Going in a circle, never getting to the point Burning up the atmosphere, my rocket ship boy You say there's a finish line, you're already beat You're living on your knees Rocket boy, my only son You look so sad but you're so young You get so high, you're all alone Rocket boy, come home Notebook, some notes you took A big hit with a crooked hook Your best friend is you again You can't win but you won't give in Going in a circle, getting lower every time Say it isn't hurting but I never see you smile Asking for the doctor and calling you a priest You're living on your knees Rocket boy, you burn so bright And I believe, you lie so beautifully When you get high you're all alone Rocket boy, come home Dad it's me again, I hate to call Could you come down? There's been an accident Were you involved? Yes, sir, no, sir, they say I was Got home, cried alone The video will surely show No one knows I came this close To being me, but I lost us both Going in a circle and it's keeping you around You've been here forever but you've never been found You didn't want a witness and I didn't want to see You living on your knees Rocket boy Rocket boy, come home
