Felt something sharp rise  (C major) up within me
When I crossed the border

Stopped at the gas station  (G major) payphone
I let my fingers fly
The wicked impulses were dying
C 
 (C major) But I couldn't let them die

singing about the old times

No one had anything to prove

That I could not move

I was bloated
