lyrics

Off the rails, nowhere to go
Eyes like piss holes in the snow
Last night bled into the night before
It’s a flash back cut like a horror show
Move like a twister through a trailer park
Born again in a fatal spark
Moth to the flame in total dark
Leave a trail of smoke in a falling arc

You show to me your hand
And cut me down to size
You tell me where I stand
And blow my head off with a gale force shy

Hang a red rope upon my door
Ship me off to a distant shore
When I hear the sound of your trumpet roar
I will take my chances in Jericho

I’ve lost the will to live
I feel old before my time
Like words don’t mean a thing
But they seem to fit and all the endings rhyme
I’m just a failure in your eyes
That comes to me as no surprise at all.
