I'll show you luxury, champagne and cigarettes
Touching the tips of our tongues
We love how the bubbles are filling our bellies
And smoke's filling up our lungs
But how did we get so far away from our home
And what have we learned out in the swamp
We just couldn't stop at all
I'll show you empty whimsies and heavy hearts
Locked in the trunks of our cars
In that way they're safe, we can waste days away without
Showing the shame of our scars
Where did we learn running is better than hurt?
What have we learned out in the swamp
We just couldn't stop at all
So be it heart, bid me farewell without end
What have we learned out in the swamp, we just couldn't stop at all
