HANDGUNS LYRICS

"Still Running Away"

It was winter 2004
I slid my bike underneath the garage door
Ten miles in the falling snow
Just to throw rocks at your bedroom window
And I peddled slow

Put the pedals down and just ride
The night air makes me feel alive
I'll be back before the break of dawn
Before they realize that my bike's gone

It was summer 2009
We saw the Keys and we bolted to the shoreline
And as we crossed over the bay bridge
I crossed my fingers and we made a wish
That we'd stay until we die, yeah

Roll the windows down and just drive
We're leaving town, but just for tonight
I'll be back before the break of dawn
Before they realize that the car's gone

Stolen cars drive fast, but not as fast as stolen dreams
Between the four of us, yeah, we stole everything

It was the four of us and our stolen dreams

Get in the van and let's ride
Give me gasoline to feel alive
Cut the roots beneath my feet
Sever ties between you and me
Give me time and give me distance
(I'm still running away, I'm still running away)
Give me the path of most resistance
Give me time and give me distance
(I'm still running away, I'm still running away)
Gold comes to those persistent
