Bouncing Souls The Ballad Of Johnny X Lyrics

Johnny says he's bound by only six strings to this world
Johnny says he keeps them always one turn out of tune
Johnny never listens to the kids that say
Johnny X ain't never done the right thing anyway
Johnny wears his leather like a crown of thorns
Johnny spends alot of time wishing he was never born
Johnny waits at journal square & tells himself again
Johnny you're the patron saint of spitting in the wind
Johnny's got all the scars but he'll never learn from them
Johnny's past is his guide but he can't remember where he's been
Johnny looks up through the steam of his caffine & says
Life a train I barely caught just to find out I ain't got the fare
I got my records of the king to keep me the red red wine in
The air is drifting four chords & the spite to use them & just enough wisdom to ignore the truth
