Aaron Lee Martin - Heavy Wait Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wish I lived
In New York City
Wouldn’t have to answer to nobody
Wouldn’t have to look into their eyes

[Verse 2]
‘Cause all this Midwest guilt’s really bringing me
Down
Home-grown expectations in every
Town

[Verse 3]
Sometimes I wish I lived
In San Francisco
Think I might settle down there
Just to breathe in the bay air

[Pre-Chorus]
And will you stand up straight
If you think you’re so right?
All this land we’re locked in
Has blocked our minds

[Chorus]
Bucklin’ under the wind
“Hey, I’m fine, just fine.”
Even metal will break when it bends
Enough times
Bucklin’ under the wind, but
“I’m doing just fine.”
Bucklin’ under the wind
Bucklin’ under the wind, but
“I’m fine.”
[Bridge/Outro]
Old conviction
Our Bible Belt condition
Wrapped tight in old tradition
But the leather’s wearing out
Contradiction
Between faith and superstition
Fingers crossed just waitin,’ wishin’
Will never get you out
Oh Conviction
Our Bible Belt condition
Traded peace for ammunition
‘Cause hope is running out
Contradiction
Between love and my addictions
Here, I thought I knew the difference
But none of us got out
