Lyrics

50/50

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Why's she telling me the story of her life?

All the things you wanna kill will give you spite

And if you've taken all the prisoners inside

As they're doling out their wisdom in the fire

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I wait on a darkened highway!

I wait on a darkened highway!

I can take as long as without looking by

Why's she telling me the story of her life

And if you've taken all the prisoners inside

As they've thrown all their wisdom in the fire

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I wait on a darkened highway!

I wait on a darkened highway!

One pays to tie [Dan Nicktons?] record for the worst foul shot in the history of the playoffs

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I will say!

I will say don't judge me!

I wait on a darkened highway!

I wait on a darkened highway!
