Plaid On Flannel - Major Minor

They say it’s not his fault
Has no more wounds to salt
They told him not to worry
And everything will run it’s course
None of the games he’s won
Broke-down bastard, he left his son
And swears he will return
From all the battles and wars
He started walking slow
Because he doesn’t even know how to run
It’s all for fun or so the little story goes
He never knows such episodes
Getting adjusted to all the codes

His mind is set on what to do
He’ll find a way to find another reason too
He can’t escape the lies and fears of keeping up
If it’s a dream you know it can’t be a nightmare
You know Mr. Mayfair just someday might care
They wonder why they ever even wish him luck

He’ll make his call against the wall
He’ll start to crawl, and then he’ll fall
Above it all, it’s not his fault

Working his life away with all the bills to pay
His mother told him that he never should complain
Hot, then he’s cold as ice
Livin’ everyday as he rolls the dice
He’s cool one minute then the next he goes insane
Some people are concerned
And some don’t even care if he is alive
The car’s in drive, but no one is behind the wheel
The truth is real, he can’t conceal
All the temptations that he’ll feel

His mind is set on what to do
He’ll find a way to find another reason too
He can’t escape the lies and fears of keeping up
If it’s a dream, you know it can’t be a nightmare
You know Mr. Mayfair just someday might care
They wonder why they ever even wish him luck
He’ll make his call against the wall
He’ll start to crawl, and then he’ll fall
Above it all, it’s not his fault

(Working his life away with all the bills to pay
His mother told him that he never should complain)
His mind is set on what to do
He’ll find a way to find another reason too
He can’t escape the lies and fears of keeping up
(Hot then he’s cold as ice
Livin’ everyday as he rolls the dice
He’s cool one minute then the next he goes insane)
If it’s a dream you know it can’t be a nightmare
You know Mr. Mayfair just someday might care
They wonder why they ever even wish him luck
(They say it’s not his fault
Has no more wounds to salt
They told him not to worry
And everything will run it’s course)
His mind is set on what to do
He’ll find a way to find another reason too
He can’t escape the lies and fears of keeping up
(None of the games he’s won
Broke-down bastard, he left his son
And swears he will return
From all the battles and wars)

He’ll make his call against the wall
He’ll start to crawl, and then he’ll fall
Above it all, it’s not his fault
