Fist Fight Away

Heard you’re moving toward the city
Greener grass and smaller fields
Fancy brunches counting money
The kind of life you’d take if you could steal

I heard you’re flying from the Midwest
Had enough of these dirt roads
And you aren’t asking for forgiveness
So it must be there is nothing I am owed

It's been a long night
Chasing all the demons
Just a fist fight away
It's a hard line
Searching for the reasons
When I simply don’t hold weight to make you stay

Go on, get going babe

No more walking on the water
Please untie your bible belt child
You’ve heard enough of these our fathers
Does a heaven really make an angel wait

I’d been saving for your diamond
I thought you might take my last name
I was gonna ask your father
Guess now I won’t know what he would have said

It's been a long night
Chasing all the demons
Just a fist fight away
It's a hard line
Searching for the reasons
When I simply don’t hold weight to make you stay

I don’t think it would be worth all of the pain
Better off pretending this just ain’t a thing

Go on, get going babe
And I’ll try to keep your memory a fist fight away
