Fair To Midland

When you cry, try not to smile.
You could fill up a lake with the tears of a crocodile.
We were too young to be eating crow,

as if I would know
(I'm scared) 11 hours till the electric arcs
(I'm scared) Send scorches through the sky
(I'm scared) Then the whole earth opens wide
And I cannot wait for the earthquake
that buries us in a warm grave.
The one-legged race, on our last leg.
The will is yours, so just take it.
The will is yours.
I'd rather find Jesus outside of a book;
the same thing goes for robin hood.
Never darken my door again,

I'd rather find Jesus outside of a book;
the same thing goes for robin hood.
Never darken my door again,
if opportunity knocks, let's make him beg.
Yeah, where did you go?
I promise I will kill you right now.
Oh, where did you go?
Bring a match while you feather your nest.
Yeah, where did you go?
I promise I will kill you right now.
I promise you, I will kill you right now.
You could fill up a lake with the tears of a crocodile.
(I cannot wait for the earthquake) You lead by the nose and always get lost.
(to bury me in a cold grave) We always get lost.
Get outta this town,
hatchet men yelling timber will get us chopped down.
Get outta this hell off this rusted train track
you still take lying down.
(So) Swing us around while you're armed to the tooth,
keep yourself in the dark of some deep cobalt blue.
(So) Swing us around by the skin of your teeth,
writing us off in invisible ink.
(So) Swing us around while you're armed to the tooth,
keep yourself in the dark of some deep cobalt blue.
(So) Swing us around by the skin of your teeth,
writing us off in invisible ink.
You can still find me between devils and deep blue seas
in the desert's hands on a sheet of sand.
A dry tidal wave over my feet of clay
on unfinished glass,
looking for greener grass.
Trying to make the welkin ring,
but all my sounds are boomerangs.
Yeah, where did you go?
I promise I will kill you right now.
Oh, where did you go?
Bring a match while you feather your nest.
Yeah, where did you go?
I promise I will kill you right now.
I promise you, I will kill you right now.
I promise you, I will kill you right now.
Not today, not again;
dress it up in stolen silver and garbage.
