Welcome to the US of A
Though I can’t, I cannot stay
I would have loved to let bygones be bygones
The border patrol was a whole lot of fun
Perfect moment for a finger up my bum
I hope you don’t mind, but we’re entitled to check
I cannot pray, I cannot hide, I should have stayed on the other side
I can’t sleep, so I don’t even try
I could have stayed, I could have fought, I could have run for the thousandth time
There’s no more time, I’m too exhausted to lie
Enough of this, I’m always second to none
I’m leaving here, leaving this very second
If I had stayed, we could have wiggled around
No space to dream, no place to fuck (all the time
Like your .44 you’re cold as ice
And always ready to blow my brains out
Welcome to Montreal QC, it’s cold as fuck but the snow is white
It falls by the ton, and it numbs everything
My fingers, your feet, and everyone’s brain
I can’t help it, I hurt all the time
Every look every word, they hit like a knife
Enough of this, I’m always second to none
I’m leaving here, leaving this very second
If I had stayed, we could have wiggled around
No space to dream, no place to fuck all the time
Like your .44 you’re cold as ice
And always ready to blow my brains out
Always hiding what was real, always bending the truth at will
I did my best to make you feel, like you were loved and not so ill
You could have tried to act surprised, oh come on you’re not that smart
You kept saying you would try, though it was just like the start
Keep throwing memories at my face, like I was not there to begin with
At the bottom of the ocean, buried deep beneath the sand
You always said I knew too much
That I could help with all that stuff
That I didn’t amount to nothing much
I tried to be for real, but you just weren’t ready to hear
You kept asking for answers, but we never moved forward
Always hiding what was real, always bending the truth at will
Nothing’s changed don’t you see? We just never moved forward
You always said I knew too much
I didn’t amount to nothing much
