Adrian

In a trashy village we were trash

Mama taught me how to smoke

And my best friends dad lived in a trailer

My babysitter had gone awol from Vietnam

Had Harleys, no front teeth, had dirty cash and a tailor

Driftwood kids with nervous tics and shoplift trix and

Chappy lips all country sick and set up for failure

Emelie she got grown up kids

At the age of 35

Gabriel he got dope sick

And his dreams are still a child's

Adrian, have you forgiven me for how I left you in the dirt?

Adrian, have you forgiven yourself and

Your best friend for taking your girl?

I ran from you and from that dead end town and

You didn't even get a song

I hope that you know now

Why, why I had to run

(Run run Adrian

Run run Adrian)

Busking for the weekend

Copenhagen station

There's a reason I never invited you over

Backpacks in my friends' apartments

I knew strange men, door men

Don't you question

But did you ever wonder?

How I knew all them boys downtown

And could hotwire cars without cables

How I could weigh just a hundred pounds

And still drink you under the table?

Adrian, have you forgiven me for how I left you in the dirt?

Adrian, have you forgiven yourself and

Your best friend for taking your girl?

I ran from you and from that dead end town and

You didn't even get a song

I hope that you know now

Why, why I had to run

(Run run Adrian

Run run Adrian)

Oh Adrian

We never stood a chance

The only thing that I can guarantee you

Is a fist fight at our wedding

And my brother getting hammered

And my daddy's disastrous daddy daughter dance

Don't think your parents ever eat in their adidas pants

Don't think your mama ever smoked under a kitchen fan

I'm the result of a trailer trash romance

Adrian, have you forgiven me for how I left you in the dirt?

Adrian, have you forgiven yourself and

Your best friend for taking your girl?

I ran from you and from that dead end town and

You didn't even get a song

I hope that you know now

Why, why I had to run

(Run run Adrian

Run run Adrian)
