Lyrics of Red lights and neon

I hope you don't mind if i
Rest inside your door
Please forgive the snowy footprints
I'm tracking on your floor.
I only want to stop and rest
Don't want to start no fight.
I'll just wait here for a while
'till the police car's out of sight.
For as long as i remember
I've hated those red lights
And hotel rooms with plaster walls
And loud and lonely nights.
It seems like i've been on this road
Ever since i was a kid
I could tell if i was sorry
If i remembered what i did.
A wanted man in new orleans
Matches my description.
Mister druggist please be kind enough
To refill my prescription.
If i had to do it over
This ain't the life i'd choose
But the road still runs and so do i
And at least i made the news.
And the streetlights never waver
And the red lights never dim
And the neon always glitters
And it was better me than him.
