you know you're a fool
that's in love with a fool
and you can't quite explain
why you'd break all the rules
there's a body in cortez
that you wrapped in the pavement
and you hoped that i'd find
everytime in the basement
and you flee every scene
but you leave your little secret
that i find all the time
and you know that i'd keep it
you teach all the kids
what's right and what's wrong
what's more of a shock
what you do or how i knew
all along

you swear that you'll stop all this nonsense
the police are closing in
i'm just one lead from busting wide open
you swear you're through i hope you're not joking
cause i've got better things to do
we'll spend our summers in sierra vista
you say the air helps to keep you cool
you're working on that little problem
i hope you don't play me as a fool
cause i've got better things to do
i can't sit here waiting to clean up after you
cause i've got better things to do
you swear that you'll stop all this nonsense

let's take some time
to go away
head up north
to mesa verde
we'll take it slow
soak it in
cliff palace
where we'll begin
cause they have somethings
we won't see in the city
we'll buy some baskets
and some pottery
we can relax
enjoy ourselves
learn to laugh
in mesa verde
we could meet our friends
or go alone
spend some time
in mesa verde
when we were young
we were happy
spent our days
in the valley
and now we're trying
to get back there
before we started
to disappear

paradox

there's a house in paradox
that changes everything
down in the basement
just like the beginning
and you claim you were out
with some friends
but i doubt
and your lies will break my heart
there's a man in delores
he's seen some things in his day
he has information
but he wants me to pay
and he says you were out
by yourself
and i don't doubt
that your lies will break my heart

pagosa springs

|

|
you pack your bags and ran away
but that's okay cause you are safe
i won't stop you
i can't stop you
you claim your innocent
but why you running that don't make sense to me
why would you leave we could figure this out
they'll never take you alive
you ran off with your things
got trapped out in the springs just to the east
why did you leave we could have figured this out
they never took you alive

there's a man in delores
who's got me figured out
follows me to the florist
but he doesn't shut his mouth
he's got a little secret
that he wants to share with me
he knows i will keep it
or so he believes
but not today
i'll put him in his place
i buried that girl
yesterday
he smiles in my direction
as i'm walking away
a slight change in inflection
there's something he needs to say
tell my partner
when he comes back to town
he claims she was a martyr
and that should make me proud
but not today
i punch him in his face
cause i buried that girl
yesterday
