    Lyrics:
    Losing touch in Tennessee
    Freedom’s got the best of me
    Goddamn my opportunities
    Goddamn this easy livin’
    Gasping for the mountain air
    Crawling up the campus stairs
    My throne is an electric chair
    I’m stunned with indecision
    Pray for upgrades on my soul
    Tearing through an open road
    Questioning my moral code
    And screaming at a windshield
    Knowing better all along
    Knowing all I know is wrong
    Throwing up my alcohol
    Am I making this a big deal?
    Oh my skull is just a big white house
    To some punk-ass kids from out of town
    They stay up late, and talk real loud
    And sometimes I feel like kicking them out
    Self-absorbed most of the time
    Obsessed with sex and suicide
    The dreams of Texas girls gone by
    I lie like California
    Stumbling over all the states
    Mumblin’ like a basket case,
    “Oh, love is like a rattlesnake
    Before it bites it tries to warn ya”
    But my heart is just a little boy
    Holding hands like brand new toys
    Drunk on freedom, stuck on choice
    Just cooing for the rattle’s noise
    Out of town and two klicks past
    I found a Western diamondback
    It blocks my self-destructive path
    I laugh, it shakes its tail
    Says, “If you hurt all of your friends
    And disappear around the bend
    You bet you come right back again
    And try to love, though you may fail.”
