I wanted you to think I was a cowboy
So I told you where I am from
But all I ever did was run from trucks
And I've never held a gun
I wanted you to think I was strong
So I showed you my restraint
Far past when I lost control
I never stopped the game
I wanted you to think I was a fighter
So I showed you all of my teeth
And I held them up like a monument
To the fall underneath
I wanted you to think I was a cowboy
So I told you where I am from
And I walked around like I didn't care that
I lost everyone.
