The Nick Hexum Quintet Sideways lyrics

She's twenty-two and not from here, a rebel all the way through
A static princess never winces when she's telling the truth
Her beauty's undenied
All the make-up cannot hide
She checks herself, reflection tells it different every time
With all the talk, her mind won't stop from saying little white lies
Said, "How do I get there?
To the place where I do not care?"
There's so much to remind her here.

(Chorus):
I try to keep you here
You seem to disappear
It keeps goin' sideways
Keeps goin' sideways
Once again I forgave you
But I cannot save you
Just don't turn back
You're better than that


I'm like the clean-up crew embarking on another rescue
With so much baggage in one package, should I be on the loose?
We are two of a kind
And we're both out of our minds
Our imperfections perfectly aligned

(Chorus)

Wherever you roam, as things go askew
I'll be right here, crazy with you
We're out on the loose
Two lunatics free
We're gonna be sideways, to infinity

(Chorus)
