Karaoké Jackie and Wilson Hozier

So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes

No better version of me

I could pretend to be tonight

So deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine

For reasons wretched and divine

She blows outta nowhere roman candle of the wild

Laughing away through my feeble disguise

No other version of me

I would rather be tonight

And Lord she found me just in time

'Cos with my mid-youth crisis all said and done

I need to be youthfully felt 'cos God I never felt young

She's gonna save me call me baby run her hands through my hair

She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care

We'll steal her Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues

We'll name our children

Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues

Lord it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime

Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine

Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside

Sit back and watch the world go by

Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust

We tried the world good God it wasn't for us

She's gonna save me call me baby run her hands through my hair

She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care

We'll steal her Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues

We'll name our children

Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues

Cut clean from the dream at night let my mind reset

Looking up from a cigarette and she's already left

I start digging up the yard for what's

Left of me and our little vignette

For whatever poor soul is coming next

She's gonna save me call me baby run her hands through my hair

She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care

We'll steal her Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues

We'll name our children

Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues
