There was a man on the road an hour ago, |
|
he were looking for a ride to New Mexico. |
|
We went driving by way too fast to know, |
|
we got to the place on a high speed chase. |
|
Seen my girlie in the corner with a plastic face, |
|
and then she disappeared without a trace, |
|
I said without a trace. |
|
Now we're all sittin' back, sippin' some beers, |
|
there's a man tellin' stories about his inner fears. |
|
We was all choked up and too close to tears. |
|
So I moved on up to a cup of margarita. |
|
I made a couple faces at a couple senorita, |
|
playing drinking game, she too gone to be with me... |
|
So now my car broke down about an hour ago. |
|
We were headed on down to New Mexico, |
|
where we did not see that gas was low |
|
hey yeah, |
|
gas was low, |
|
gas was low, |
|
gas so low, |
|
so low. |
|
I lost my soul somewhere on the road |
|
but I'm gonna get it back real soon. |
|
Mike will you get it back for me? |
|
(keyboards) |
|
Been chasing footsteps with... |
|
Been running around in circles for years. |
|
Chasing my tail looking for answers to questions I've never heard |
|
It's a wide open world, |
|
I'm trying to find a way. |
|
It's a wide open sky, |
|
but it's light and blinding. |
|
It's raining down on me. |
|
Slowin' me down, but I keep on going. |
|
I know I recognize this man walking in front of me. |
|
When he turned around and locked eyes with me, |
|
and it scared me to see myself in twenty years |
|
lost, ashamed, locked up, loaded down...(unintelligible) |
|
That I could change my ways |
|
and I took a different road |
|
no more running around in circles |
|
no more chasing my tail |
|
I'm just going forward these days with my eyes closed. |
|
I know I can make it. Fuck it, |
|
I know I can make it if I try. |
|
I must let love live inside me for a while. |
|
Maybe later on, I'll see you all after the show |
|
I heard this story down here about an hour ago |
|
I know, I go ahead, |
|
I am a different man, |
|
Different man than I was. |
|
I'm going find my way home, |
|
Find my way home. |
