lyrics

You moved to Carrboro so you could find
Places to go that were not so unkind.
Those black, angry men that would eat you alive
They ate up your brain, so you left them behind.
Hanging out with all the boys in town,
Some won’t mind, and some will feel let down.
Did you wonder how they'd live without you?
You said ’I love you’ without thinking twice,
I knew I didn’t but thought it was nice.
Right through your eyeballs I saw our demise
Twisting and certain as ebony skies.
Flaking out on everyone around,
Some won’t ask, but some will talk about,
What it is that eats your conscience out.
As you wander all around the town here.
With nothing to lose and nothing to fear.
I guess some you win, and some you did.
You move much better when you can’t hide.
You look content when you’re open wide.
