was it alabama
or maybe in mississippi
was it religion?
or just that sympathy?
that ruined
your god damn family
i'm not a kid
unlike a kite
i can't just go out and fly when i want to
now i'm waiting around for the sun to go down
and i miss you like hell
you know i do marybelle
what a waste of time
what a waste of time
you keep your memories
and i'll keep mine
so you didn't fill the empire
you always said you would
broke so many promises
were they no good now?
when i go out all i ever gets
me and you and that's the way it is
when i go out
so was it alabama
or maybe in mississippi
was it religion?
or just that sympathy
that ruined
my god damn family
what a waste of time
you keep your memories
and i'll keep mine
what a waste of time
you keep your memories
and i'll keep mine
what a waste of time
you keep your memories
and i'll keep mine
what a waste of time
