Hang Around (alternate take)   Year: 2007 | Run Time: 5:32

(There is an another version of this song with alternate lyrics. Show me.)

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI)

outside a motel room and the dawn she's assembling
throwing our gear into a beat up van
the cost of boredom in your veins the toll of empty rooms and stages
how much first aid will this take bartender

and your paths are winding backwards and your clocks are running down
how much longer will you hang around

was it all some cruel joke a punch line slow to unfold
led in the wrong direction by putting your best foot forward
lead you to this port of call a little numb shellshocked from it all
the pieces fall and fill up a hole in this wall

a box of your regrets a watch and other personal effects
photographs and notebooks and songs about deeper flaws
two kids and a couple of friends a long road with a short dead end
sweep it up and offer what's left to God

Appeared On…
