Coke Can Motorcycle

Little boy come closer
I wanna see if there’s light left in your eyes
Have the seasons left you colder
Did the beat of your heart stop with mine

Well I’m still that kid
Coke can motor on the back of my bike
And me and all my neighborhood friends tonight, tonight
Tonight we’re gonna ride
We’re gonna ride
Tonight we’re gonna ride
we’re gonna ride

Do you still sing when you don’t know who you are
Do you smile just the same
Ride a bike to buy a candy bar
Shoeless through the grass to play

Well I’m still that kid
Coke can motor on the back of my bike
And me and all my neighborhood friends
Tonight, tonight we’re gonna ride
we’re gonna ride
Tonight we’re gonna ride
we’re gonna ride

Look how fast I can go now momma
Taking my hands off the bars when I know you're watching
Look how far I’ve gone now momma
With my hands off the bars cuz I know you're watching now

What’s the proper way or line to pray so you’ll honor
Me with a hint you’ve not withdrawn from me
I may run my way but never quite been the one to stray
If it were why I’d endured so much
Which son again did God adore, which sins that my father bore am I still paying back
Why should anyone believe in that
I’m just trying to keep up with my faith at the price of learning to forget

It’s like you knew the fair to take me there and I fronted
Watched me counting loss down to none from one hundred
Belief is a dangerous thing when you’ve got no lines from real to dream

I’m just trying to keep up with my faith
At the price of learning to forget
I’m just trying to keep up with my faith
At the price of learning to forget

Numb to the feel of when you're here and when you're gone
If there’s no difference tell me what there is to long for
No no I don’t mean it like that
You ought to know me better than that
I hear you're bringing hell and it won’t take too long
I’m gonna free dive in that pool of fire of my wrongs
Cuz I don't think you mean it like that
Think of you better than that

I’m just trying to keep up with my faith
At the price of learning to forget
I’m just trying to keep up with my faith
At the price of learning to forget
