New Years Resolution Ride
Spin the bullet, click the revolver shut
Thumbing hammer, pulling trigger for the cut
A shadow snap, leaves me another day
Pistol safely locked in case, on my way
Leather, denim, hair tied back, and black boot heel
Hit the bong, straddle the chrome, red, and steel
Music in my head, time to hit the road
Mean furious speed, slow mental download
White micro-dotted visions to unroll
Draining my strength sucking, self doubting soul
Another New Years resolution ride
One more year, until pistol will decide
