I wanted you to think I was a cowboy, So I told you where I was from. But all I ever did was run from trucks And I never held a gun. I wanted you to think I was strong. So I showed you my restraint. Far past when I lost control I never stopped the game. I wanted you to think I was a fighter, So I showed you all my teeth. And I held them up like a monument To the fall underneath. I wanted you to think I was a cowboy, So I told you where I am from. And I walked around like I didn’t care That I lost everyone.
