Lyrics Swing for the Fence - Raid the Quarry

Looking over my shoulder
Towards the girl at the end of the hall
But our eyes don't meet
So I head for the street
Just trying to forget 'em all
The night's too hot to be this cold
And the taste is making me sick
Watch on my wrist is handcuff
Hell, it's getting tighter with every tick

I can feel the walls falling on my head
The crash was so loud couldn't heard what you said
Go ahead and fire, save me the suspense
And load this gun while I swing for the fence

Twenty-two years of chances
But I never knew the race was on
Was a write-in candidate
Showed up too late
Now all the good seats are gone
A gentleman knows how to lose
And this chivalry sure leaves a mark
I'll be polite, head home tonight
Trudging alone in the dark

I can feel the walls falling on my head
The crash was so loud couldn't heard what you said
Go ahead and fire, save me the suspense
And load this gun while I swing for the fence
I can take the weight, I can be alone
Got your out-of-focus pictures on my phone
Looking for an end, clawing for a hold
I keep swinging this bat with a blindfold

I can feel the walls falling on my head
The crash was so loud couldn't heard what you said
Go ahead and fire, save me the suspense
And load this gun while I swing for the fence
I can take the weight, I can be alone
Got your out-of-focus pictures on my phone
Looking for an end, clawing for a hold
I keep swinging this bat with a blindfold
