Max Childress - Vagrancy Lyrics

Running through the rain in my brand-new Docs
There's mud in my hair and water in my socks
There's pressure on my back and a diary in my hand
My knees are weak and I can barely stand

I run up to my friend's house about half to three
He's got on fishnet slippers and he's staring at me
I grab his hand and we both jump down
There's songs in my head and there's life in the town

It's heavy, but I need you
I can't explain the way I feel about you
I don't know why, but I need you
We're both, we're both from different sides of the tracks

Be of good cheer, we will not desert you
But part of me still rests
Beat me over and knock me twice
Your hands upon my breast

The vibrancy of the famished soul
Points to me and my blood runs cold
The stories I've heard, I hope they're not true
The crowd is always pointing their finger at you

It's heavy, but I love you
I can't explain the way I feel about you
I don't know why, but I need you
We're both, we're both from different sides of the town

It's heavy, but I love you
I can't explain the way I feel about you
I don't know why, but I need you
We're both, we're both from different sides of this old land

Watching fireworks rage up to the skies
I encourage your smiles, and I expect you to cry
There's a faux zipper running through the front of your shirt
Your friends have all left and you are feeling hurt

Running through the rain in my brand-new Docs
There's mud in my hair and water in my socks
There's pressure on my back and a diary in my hand
I'm stomping my feet all over this old land
