i tried to rock you but you only roll

hear me now, like you did back then
with an underground feeling and a solid gold old soul
hear me now like you did back then
with an over ground healing tried to steal my soul
got so scared, got so tired doing everything wrong doing everything right
got 2 guitars to play my songs
many rights to kill my wrongs
got a smile, that could knock you down
friends who'll follow me and don't own responsibility
but i know what i am and i know that i'm right

my arms were reaching not to let you go
i tried to rock you but you only can roll
the ink you spilt across my skin
is sinking deeper within

i was wrong to put you up there with a ton of dead heros
and a ton of dead songs but you came to me like a casual dream
slow to begin put a smile on my skin
got a head full of new ideas
got music bleeding from my ears
and people who believe in me
i got miles and miles of things to see and nothing relates to you and me
and i know what i am and i know that i'm right
