Description
my fingers are panning for gold on your hipbonesyour heart is a nomad and i am an outlaw
and you do not care for my gunslinger smile or my western drawl
but you are fascinated by my prison break scars
all of the things i am not saying
and every person i have touched
for just long enough to steal everything they hold dear
my fingers are panning for gold on your hipbones
and coming up full, because you see no value in gold
you see no reason to keep it from me
your fingers are counting coup down the line of my spine
and i don't know what it means, but god, it feels so good
your heart is a nomad and i am an outlaw
and you do not care for my gunslinger smile
or the number of banks i have broken into
or the number of hearts i have broken out of
and i do not care for your nomad smile or your buffalo heart
or the number of hearts you have skinned
and my fingers are panning for gold on your hipbones
and you see no value in gold
and i see no reason to convince you otherwise
you are fascinated by the marks left on my spine
by every person i have touched
as a distraction or a warning or a killing blow
you do not care for my gunslinger smile or my killer blows
your heart is a nomad and i am an outlaw
and someday you will move on, someday i will break out
and that is not this day
because today, my fingers are panning for gold on your hipbones

Haha, I wouldn't either! I love getting inspired in the middle of class, because the fact that it's all around you helps keep you in the frame of mind.
