Toll Road

I'm not gonna feel bad any more
I'll never have to see you again
I'm not gonna feel sad any more
I'll never have to see you again

Should we accidentally
Meet some time
Don't act like you
Are a friend of mine

The last time I saw you 
You had lost all hope
You were on Sixth Street
Hooking for a bag of dope

I won’t try to escape this time
I'll keep a rock steady gaze
My eyes will be trained on you
Until that Corsica disappears in the haze

I'll drop you on the Toll Road
I won’t even raise my hand
Eighteen Wheelers will go rumbling by
You are so dumb I know you won’t understand

I'm not gonna feel bad any more
I'll never have to see you again
I'm not gonna feel sad any more
Because I'll never have to see you again

I let you destroy the love in my heart
You are only attracted to men who are trash
I hope my memory of you will fade 
And I hope that Corsica doesn't crash

I did not want to be wrecked and maimed
I did not want to hear you cry
I don't want to keep suffering
I just don't want to see you, all right

Oh Oh, Oh Oh

I'm not gonna feel bad any more 
I'll never have to see you again 
I'm not gonna feel sad any more 
Because I'll never have to see you again

I let you destroy the love in my heart 
You are only attracted to men who are trash (who were trash)
I hope my memory of you will fade 
And I hope that Corsica doesn't crash

I did not want to be wrecked and maimed 
I did not want to hear you cry 
I don't want to keep suffering 
I just don't want to see you, all right
