Jackie and Wilson

Hozier

So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight So deep in the swirl with the most familiar swine For reasons wretched and divine She blows out of nowhere, roman candle of the wild Laughing away through my feeble disguise No other version of me I would rather to be tonight Lord she found me just in time 'Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done I need to be youthfully felt, 'cause God I never felt young She's gonna save me call me baby run her hands through my hair She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily, but yet she wouldn't care We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives, ride round pickin' up clues We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, 'raise em on rhythm and blues Lord it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime Me and my isis growing black irises in the sunshine Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside Sit back and watch the world go by Happy to lie back, watch it burn and rust We tried to work, good God it wasn't for us She's gonna save me, call me baby, run her hands through my hair She'll know me crazy soothe me daily but yet she wouldn't care We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives, ride round pickin' up clues We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, raise 'em on rhythm and Blues Cut clean from the dream that night, let my mind reset Looking up from the cigarette, she's already left I start thinking of the art for what's left of me and our little vignette For whatever pour soul is coming next She's gonna save me, call me baby, run her hands through my hair She'll know me crazy soothe me daily but yet she wouldn't care We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives, ride around pickin' up clues We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, raise 'em on rhythm and Blues --- Jackie and Wilson - Hozier
