Lori McKenna - Pink Sweater lyrics

Colors confuse you Light in your eyes will abuse you You are weak and hollow Blinded by beliefs that I cannot swallow The world will condemn you Your beliefs will release but never defend you You are cold but you boil You are lower than dirt but not worth the soil So believe in yourself Because far behind the bars you'll have nobody else And the hall to a dead man's cell is long But I'll be the one in the pink sweater Dancing around when you're gone So tell me what were you thinking? Can't blame it on d**, can't blame it on drinking Can't say we'll forgive it Cross burning and blazes for the worst kind of bigot So believe in yourself Because far behind the bars you'll have nobody else And the hall to a dead man's cell is long And I'll be the one in the pink sweater Dancing around when you're gone Yeah I'll be the one in the pink sweater Dancing around when you're gone And the martyrs run like thieves While hang men dangle from trees But you won't feel a thing I can't believe that your last name is King But I heard God I heard God's black So what you gonna do when you're up against that? Think He's got a noose ready for you? Think He's got a chain and a truck and He's bullsh** at you? So believe in yourself Because far behind the bars you'll have nobody else And the hall to a dead man's cell is long But I'll be the one in the pink sweater Dancing around when you're gone Yeah I'll be the one in the pink sweater Dancing around I'll be dancing around when you're gone
