lyrics

I, am an outlaw in my mind,
often hard to find,
wandering county lines.

but the real me,
just sits here drinking tea,
while I peruse these,
pages of history,

And now,
there’s a knocking at the door,
footsteps upon the floor,
will I be free no more?

But it, turns out it's just a friend,
Coming around to lend,
Me a fountain pen,
So I can write again.
Thank-you Ben.

I am,
an outlaw in my mind,
but in real life I,
walk the straightest line.
Riding horseback,
guns blazing in my head,
But in real life I’m just trying real hard to get out of bed.

My precious jewel,
You know I never had the time to hold you,
So I stole you.

So I’ll run,
Across this desert land,
With you held in my hand,
Until my final stand.

But now I'm hearing,
Sirens off somewhere far,
And I’m back in my car,
Not moving fast,
This traffic sucks...
Again...

I am,
an outlaw in my mind,
but in real life I,
walk the straightest line.
Riding horseback,
guns blazing in my head,
But in real life I’m just trying real hard to get out of bed.

Though my head is everywhere,
I'm still running home,
though I'm lost in empty desert,
I'm still coming home.
