Lyric

Do you really wanna make music in a trailer? 
Why would you do that? 
Isn't that strange? 
You know you've got a house and a piano just upstairs 
It's kinda hard to concentrate up there 

Do you really wanna put a bullet in a boxcar? 
Why would you do that? 
Breaking the law 
If someone called the cops you'd go to jail for a stay 
I'd feel like I did something today 

Wooden walls would help me be inspired 
And prison bars would help me pay some dues 
I'm not good enough to be the pale rider 
and of course I'm too alive to wear his boots 

Do you really wanna be sitting here just dying? 
Why would you do that? 
Life is too short 
Just get a stupid job or volunteer your wasted days 
I'm hoping this is just another phase 

Do you really wanna just crawl inside a bottle? 
Why would you do that? 
Running away 
"Alcohol and drugs are just a crutch", would say your mom 
Anything to keep me walking on
