Keep Moving

I keep moving

I go from house to house

I stay committed

Like one foot in, one foot out

I bounce

Yeah I'm leaving this place

Divorce papers falling out my briefcase

Miss Intuition, the half-truth harlot

Got her suspicions

Lacks proof but wants it

I've been practicin grabbin the noose when the knot slips

Rewiring my mind to make the firing squad miss

And while they're busy reloading

I'm decoding the messages she sent with this key I keep holding

But it's a copy

And the lock seems broken

Got me chokin' on discussions I cannot keep open

I'm fully clothed in this cock-tease moment

The last cigarette sits between my lips

But I will not smoke it

While it dangled I got strangled by a second hand

Broke the ropes when I held my breath and let my chest expand

Threw the stogie to the lonely hitman for hire

Told him that he owed me and he showed me his hand's on fire

We didn't shake on it

He nodded, I nodded back

He lit the cigarette with his finger and dropped the gat

I started walking the tracks you should've tied me to

I waited for a train to hop but stopped to say good-bye to you

When I turned my head

I heard what you said:

"Murder him dead and try to do it with the girl in his bed"

So I fled

As I remembered one should never look back

There's no direction home only blood on the tracks

Stuck in the past

I jetted and left the red footprints for them to follow

Headed toward tomorrow

And took sips from the flask

That you bought me

For my sober anniversary

Her dad tracks my scent

She's got her old man in search of me

He knows where I'm headed, he's been there

King of the home

Sits on his throne like it's an electric chair

I'm the heir to that domestic death sentence

I see people accepting lethal injections

Dead in seconds

They confused prison for a bed in breakfast

Used their one call on voicemail to see who left a message

Could it be her?

Could it be!?

They're desperate

Mad at me cause they lack a strategy for exit

Nobody pregnant, nobody get burped

I got lost on this head trip but won't talk to an expert

My legs hurt cuz I've been walking with cement boots

Ever since you lured me to the water bed to get cute

She had a wet suit and dry dispostion

But couldn't execute that type of mission

It's no small time thing organizing my ending

My book of life

Is a "Choose Your Own Adventure"

With a circular section

You can tell your friends I walked all over you

But you know that's not what these boots were made to do

In fact, you had them crafted at the store

Said, "Baby, slip em on" but I don't know what you take me for.

I knew what was up once I felt nailed to the floor

And since the key didnt work I kicked my way through the door

I keep moving

I go from house to house

I stay committed like one foot in, one foot out

I bounce

Yeah I'm leaving this place

Divorce papers falling out my briefcase

I keep moving

I go from house to house

I stay committed like one foot in, one foot out

I bounce

Yeah I'm leaving this place

Divorce papers falling the fuck out my briefcase

I am no destination

I am just the journey

So don't go settling on me, love

No, don't go settling on me

I am no destination

I am just the journey

So don't go settling on me, love

No, don't go settling on me

I am no destination

I am just the journey

So don't go settling on me, love

No, don't go settling on me

Speak of me in your travels

Take pictures if you please

But don't go settling on me, love

No don't go settling on me
