Avenue

[Verse 1]
You've been
Walking down the avenue
With one girl in view
A brunette with a face
That collapses here in grace
Into one glass of amber memories

[Chorus 1]
I'll take my chances
With the history of lies
And a life of compromise

[Verse 2]
I will drink till I'm drunk
Until I've had my thrill
Until I've reached the ledge
Of God's dirty windowsill

[Chorus 2]
I'll take my chances
With a pocketful of change
And a life of wealth and fame

[Verse 3]
The blonde with the locks
Holds the key to your heart
But she won't open up
Until she tears it apart

[Chorus 3]
I'll take my chances
With a bucketful of tears
And a life of unfound fears

[Verse 4]
You know it's time for a change
To get out of this rut
In the same damn ditch
In the same pickup truck

[Bridge]
Wheels are spinning
Out of control
It's getting dark
You're all alone
Cause

[Verse 1]
You've been
Walking down the avenue
With one girl in view
A brunette with a face
That collapses here in grace
Into one glass of amber memories

[Chorus 1]
I'll take my chances
With the history of lies
And a life of compromise

[Chorus 3]
I will take my chances
With a bucketful of tears
And a life of unfound fears
