Title: Why can't you be?

Lyrics Why can't you be?

You and your element of dangerous
Cheatin' death like a stranger but
Devil's got your shirt tail clutched
In the palm of his hand
Double vodka on the rocks on a plastic tray
Never fails you but it won't
Take the hours away - hey, hey, hey

Why can't you be
Why can't you be
It's plain to see you drive yourself crazy
Why can't you be
Why can't you be
It's plain to see you're the only enemy

You got some stories you're afraid to tell
Tired of living in a shotgun shell
Headin' west to find the edge of life itself
Last I heard there were angels
Walking in Los Angeles
With their hands in their
Pockets lookin' cool like me, he, he, he

Scared of lovin' cause it might feel good
You want to get it like you know you should
What the hell's wrong with living without the blues
You stand convicted, you stand accused
You're so conflicted and abused, ooh ooh ooh

So here's to you
Guilty of being you is the easiest
Of all the thing you do-
