I'm Leaving - Rafael Vigilantics

I'm Leaving Lyrics

My sweet skin is gone again
But your damn love it holds me in
I touch the curve around the bend
Inside the circle I am stuck again
Yah I was leavin and there was no applause
See I was grieving pretending I was lost
But I was being selfish with no remorse
And thats the reason why I couldnt afford to stay
Seeing as you would always see me that way
But if im leaving and I just keep away
then really what could you ever say?
That you knew and loved me to this day.
I was sleeping poorly at best
It had been three months since I had struck out west
If I keep moving, then I swear youll see me again
But if I stay here this will be the end (of us)

What were you doing in the canyon with the coyotes
Why cant I eat and I just drink so much that I throw up?
I just black out and blank out on the white lights of the beltway boys
Into the big arms of the O'reilly goodnights.
Why you doing what you're doing to me
You know my habits get nasty when im dying to leave
Blurry visions seeing two of you and thats a conspiracy
I mean it when I say it and I swear youre so dear to me
But heres the deal my dear and I am so sincere
I got my ticket in the morning, leaving out of here
Steering clear of all the paved roads but you can leave the light on
Because Im out but Im in for
Another restless long night
where the rest stops at the green lights
and the food tastes like a neon sign that I saw back at the state line
I make an anagram out of your name again in the palm of my hand
The pen wont right me back though, it just writes that...
My sweet skin is gone again
But your damn love it holds me in
I touch the curve around the bend
Inside the circle I am stuck again
You see, my country like my girlfriend stabbed me in the back again
My money, like my defense goes down when I see a bottle of liqueur around
Im lucky that Im still here, had so many loved ones just up and disappear
It gives me the feeling, the fear, it keeps me moving and here you are pulling me back
I try leaving I crash
Its like a bad driver, bullfight, bullshit, bulldyke
Trying to get off at the wrong exit or the wrong sight
Of a man crying, turnpike in Jersey can do that to you
Spit you out and chew you down to the bone whites
What were you doing in the canyon with the coyotes
Why cant I eat and I just drink so much that I throw up?
I just black out and blank out on the white lights of the beltway boys
Into the big arms of the O'reilly goodnights
