lyrics

Seemed kind of special seeing you in Wayne
Your ages shows a little but to me you look the same
As that innocent dropout in Feburary of ‘05
You turned twenty-eight last week but you’re celebrating tonight

Showing me things we could have shared
Oh why the need to even go there?
Showing me things we could have shared
Kid's got your green eyes and dark hair

Last time I seen him he was at the Legion Hall
His arm in a sling, his fist no match for the brick wall
Said his old lady just left him, she couldn’t keep up to his pace
She moved on pretty quick, there’s a new truck parked outside her place

And he’s paying off the fines while working on a second DUI
Oh he’s still paying off the fines and it’s only the patch that’s running dry

The highway west of town is a son of a bitch
It’s a painful reminder - three white crosses in the ditch
That rock and roll lifestyle was a youthful attraction
To live fast and die young was fine until it finally happened

Now my eyes can’t even look
at the endpoint of that joyride they took
My eyes can’t even look
at their final words in the yearbook

And I hear
Not many showed up for the Ten Year
But they racked up a big tab
Left unpaid with a dine and dash

After the cops crashed the party
And hauled Holmen to the tank
He got in a fight again
Seems little has changed
