I met a girl from Brownsville She kamikaze head-turn got me into a frill, I told her about my friends back home What they'd say- How she spoke Lasting Words in the lasting night And every time I see a boat by a lake I want to jump up and say Let's row away from everything. Said she was a cutter And I said my dad's a preacher man. I took her to the boat out down by the lake I kindly took her by the hand Just to make her understand I took her to the boat out down by the lake And just when everything was said I hugged her hard around her head I told her there are things that we shouldn't say Now watch me say them I tore her down today Everything just goes away But the scars you hide today And you don't want to say Everything just goes away.
