White Crosses Lyrics

I'm going to give a very simple answer but I think this is about some big adventure that he had or a walk he went on while tripping on amphetamines

Ponytails swinging back and forth Behind beach blonde college girls out for a jog St. Augustine, shine your light down on me Pop hits from the nineties Echo out of tourist filled bars I'm met with arms crossed under dirty looks I am treated like a common thief

Telling us what he sees, tells us he feels persecuted for who he is where he goes because of who he is.

Eavesdropping in on conversations I wander aimless, leering at strangers Strung out on the amphetamines that you gave to me Eyeballed with suspicion by a pencil skirt in high heels You realize that you're talking to yourself Cannon fire explodes out over the bay

He's talking about an amphetamine trip, guess only people who have been there no how it is haha.

When your tripping out on amphetamines, the world seems to have more deeper meaning, guess this is his interpretation of how he sees the world while tripping...

Oh yea and eavesdropping on conversation, you tend to hear a lot of shit that suddenly makes sense hahaha

My Interpretation
