Trainwreck - BANKS

Hey, I heard it from the state

They told me you were never gonna let me get away

And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait

I had to get away, I had to get away, ay-ay

Hey, you try to compensate

For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate

You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated

Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away

Talking to ears that have been deaf for as long as I can remember

A self-medicated handicap, so I speak to myself

And I try so hard to get his stupid deaf ears to hear

That I’ve become illiterate, I’ve become dumb

When I come through, you were dark blue

And I saved you from your darker days

Born to take care of you, or I thought so

Maybe it was just a phase

Hey, I heard it from the state

They told me you were never gonna let me get away

And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait

I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away

Hey, you try to compensate

For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate

You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated

Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away

Shot down by a guy I never wanted to kiss

And I can hear the singing of his ringing triumphing

And I’m chugging along in a train

And I’m heading the wrong way, and I’m a trainwreck

And my heart goes «Beat, beat, beat»

To the music of this sad, same song

It’s quite depressing

There is no fixing to the problem when you’re talking to an idiot

When I come through, you were dark blue

And I saved you, from your darker days

Born to take care of you, or I thought so

Maybe it was just a phase

Baby, only maybe

Just a dreamer, but I soon found out

That the train tracks were behind me

Tried to warn me, but both of my ears went out

(But then my ears went out, out, out…)

When I come through, you were dark blue

And I saved you, from your darker days

Born to take care of you, or I thought so

Maybe it was just a phase

Hey, I heard it from the state

They told me you were never gonna let me get away

And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait

I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away

Hey, you try to compensate

For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate

You showed me all your letters that I should’ve confiscated

Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away
