Changing strings
Banging on things
A couple of (1)__________ from the school

Cast the heaviest stone
Suburban cover band playing bad to the bone
In a bathtub of meth

You know when you can't (14)________ your past in the eye

Can I just go back to when
I was the winner
Way before the rain came
And washed (15)________ the sinners?
Everyone was something
And I could never do any wrong

Oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, ho, oh-oh, whoa
Whoa, oh, ho, oh-oh, whoa

In a rusted out (16)________________ door
We all get nostalgic
And fall for the hat trick
