Stretch Songtext / Lyric

Hunter



(Strtch)



Abandoned by, abandoned by, abandoned by your Mother

Stranded in a boys' home, stranded in a boys' home and never really recovered

Drain that poison from your mind

Or it's gonna take you down.



Stretch

Stretch, fish outta water, yah swim against the tide

Ain't no takin' sense to ya

Jekyll and Jekyll and Jekyll and Hide.



Oblivious to, oblivious to, oblivious to the danger

I tried, but I could never, I tried but I could never, I tried, but I could never change ya

You went your way, I went mine, there was nothing I could do

You wouldn't listen, no you wouldn't listen to me.






Stretch

Stretch, always something' eatin' at ya, never towed the line

Mixed up and dangerous, most of the, most of the, most of the time.



I can still see you walkin' down the street

I can still see the placed we'd meet

I can hear the voices in my head

One of them yours, even though you're dead.



Attracted by, attracted by, attracted to the lifestyle

I could never go the, I could never go the, I could never go the last mile

The pirate with the silver tongue among my souvenirs

You wouldn't listen, ah you wouldn't listen to me.



Stretch

Pride of the army, hero of the corps

You hated every minute of it, they gave you two years, you made it four.



I gotta stop hangin' out with ya, perhaps it's just as well

Now we're both doing stretches, I'm in a limo and you're in a cell.



I loved you like a brother, deep down sad

You were the best friend, I ever, I ever, I ever had.
