You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory

This one's for you Johnny

It doesn't pay to try
All the smart boys know why
It doesn't mean I didn't try
I just never know why

It's isn't 'cause I'm all alone
Oh, baby, you're not home
And when in home
Big deal, I'm still alone

Feel so restless as I am
Beat my head against a pole
Try to knock some sense
Down 'side my bones

And even though I don't show
The scars are so old

Can't put your arms around a memory
Can't put your arms around a memory
Can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try
Don't try

You're just a bastard kid
And you got no name
Could you live with me?
We're one and the same

And even though I don't show
The scars are so old

Can't put your arms around a memory
Can't put your arms around a memory
Can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try
Don't try

Johnny
Yeah, your memory
I wanna put my arms around your memory
I can't try, I can't try
Don't try

Come on

LAMF
Like a motherfucker

Yo Johnny
What color were her eyes?
Oh, she was wearing shades?
Fuck it
