[00:12.43]She said it’s none of my business but it breaks my heart
[00:18.81]Dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart
[00:25.77]Made it out to the truck without breaking down
[00:32.52]Everybody knows you in a speed trap town
[00:38.74]Well, it’s a Thursday night but theres a high school game
[00:45.53]Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name
[00:52.08]These 5A bastards run a shallow cross
[00:58.65]It’s a boys last dream and a man’s first loss
[01:04.99]And it never did occur to me to leave ’til tonight
[01:12.54]There’s no one left to ask if I’m alright
[01:20.40]I’ll sleep until I’m straight enough to drive, then decide
[01:27.17]If there’s anything that can’t be left behind
[01:35.18]The doctor said daddy wouldn’t make it a year
[01:41.38]But the holidays are over and he’s still here
[01:48.10]How long can they keep you in the ICU
[01:54.83]Veins through the skin like a faded tattoo
[02:01.27]Was a tough state trooper ’til a decade back
[02:07.76]When that girl who wasn’t mama caused his heart attack
[02:14.56]He didn’t care about us when he was walkin’ around
[02:21.21]Just pullin’ women over in a speed trap town
[02:27.65]But it never did occur to me to leave ’til tonight
[02:35.13]When I realised he’ll never be alright
[02:43.07]Sign my name and say my last goodbye, then decide
[02:49.91]But there’s nothin’ here that can’t be left behind
[02:55.95]
[03:23.85]Road got blurry when the sun came up
[03:30.28]So I slept a couple hours in the pickup truck
[03:37.13]Drank a cup of coffee by an Indian man
[03:43.49]A thousand miles away from that speed trap town
[03:49.95]A thousand miles away from that speed trap town
