Watching you watching me
While I’m watching you
But I’m feeling lonely
I’m feeling blue
And I can’t seem to shake this vision
It’s heavy, you know?
And I can’t seem to take it easy
Whenever I’m going numb
It’s what I’ve been running from
Hope I don’t need you this time
But in the evening it comes
Desire I can’t outrun
I guess I need you this time
I will not be awake anymore
Wrap around me and fall to the floor
I will not be afraid anymore
Maybe I’ll be yours
And I can’t seem to keep from dreaming
Of horses, you know?
And I can’t seem to stop the screaming
Whenever I’m going numb
It’s what I’ve been running from
Hope I don’t need you this time
But in the evening it comes
Desire I can’t outrun
I guess I need you this time
I will not be awake anymore
Wrap around me and fall to the floor
I will not be afraid anymore
Maybe I’ll be yours
I will not be awake anymore
Wrap around me and fall to the floor
I will not be afraid anymore

No Vacancy

Occupy myself until the dawn
Stare at the tv but there’s nothing on
It's just the static bouncing off the walls
A lamp is glowing on the bedroom stand
Got a Bible in the palm of my hand
I’m flipping through the pages randomly
Cut another line in my hotel room
While outside the neon sign it reads
With no friendly welcome and no vacancy
This place is filled with ghosts that follow me
I seen some crazy shit you won’t believe
Close my eyes and pray to anything
As light begins to creep under the door
I used to think that I could win this fight
Anticipating it would end sometime
But I’ve been in the same place for too long
Cut another line in my hotel room
While outside the neon sign it reads
With no friendly welcome and no vacancy
This place is filled with ghosts that follow me
This place is filled with ghosts I can’t set free
Trying to take my time
Trying to get myself right
Cut another line in my hotel room
While outside the neon sign it reads
With no friendly welcome and no vacancy
This place is filled with ghosts that follow me
This place is filled with ghosts I can’t set free

I came in on the evening train
I rolled out straight from San Antone
Fix a drink, try to catch some sleep
Before the tables all go cold
Yeah I been east, way out to Tennessee
Found myself longing for the coast
I left my share of debts along the way
Ain't no honest man should boast
Consequence is such a nasty habit
I’ll buck it all night long
Case the count, there’s a tiger in house
Before that deal goes round
Up in red I will go paint the town
If that deal goes down
Heard California is the land of gold
Well good goddamn a man can hope
So lay it all out on the queen of spades
You know she will keep me from hanging by the rope
Consequence is such a nasty habit
I’ll buck it all night long
Case the count, there’s a tiger in house
Before that deal goes round
Up in red I will go paint the town
If that deal goes down
A familiar face I saw out amongst the crowd
As that deal went round
So in a hail of lead I went riding out
Before that deal went down
//
I know you rider gonna miss me when I’m gone
I know you rider gonna miss me when I’m gone
You're gonna miss your baby from rolling in your arms
I laid down last night Lord I could not take my rest
I laid down last night Lord I could not take my rest
'Cause my mind was wandering like the wild geese in the west
I wish I was a headlight on a northbound train
I wish I was a headlight on a northbound train
I’d shine my light through the cool Colorado rain
The sun will shine in my backdoor some day
The sun will shine in my backdoor some day
March winds will blow all my troubles away

This Town

I don’t know anybody who would miss this town
You can light it up with kerosene, burn it to the ground
I think there’s a better way to use a matchstick
First you drive out to the Walmart and buy all the Sudafed
It’s a wonder anybody keeps a job around here
They’re sitting at the bar getting shitfaced on beer
Me, I work the late shift, I sleep all day
At night it’s methamphetamines to keep myself awake
Save my life tonight
Take me to the other side
Save my life tonight
Take me to the other side

Get on my feet it’s time to go again
I’m out that door I doubt we will meet again
And though I present you with a reason
In the letter why I’m leaving
You say you don’t believe I’m on a southbound train
The days are shorter and summer is gone
We were rolling in the Texas sun
Oh, Jodie, you’re the last one
Think it’s time to be moving on
Got the highway on my mind
Time for leaving time to ride that road back home
And though I present you with a reason
In the letter why I’m leaving
You say you don’t believe I’m on a southbound train

The Longest Road
04:01
|
|||
|
Worn and weary from this trip
With punctured lung and failing grip
Now confidence begins to slip
Sirens blast and bullhorns groan
Kettled up nowhere to go
Keep pushing down the longest road
Oh my love, meet me at the gallows
I’m burning in the sun
Meet me at the gallows honey
Out of time this outlaw’s run
Does standing still or walking tall
Make no difference at all?
When kingdoms come and kingdoms fall
The priest he read from Psalms to me
Book 69 verse 33
A hangman’s noose the last to see
Oh my love, meet me at the gallows
I’m burning in the sun
Meet me at the gallows honey
Out of time this outlaw’s run
Meet me at the gallows
I’m burning in the sun
Meet me at the gallows honey
Out of time this outlaw’s run
There’s so much wasted now
To turn it inside out
The walls they will come down

Come Home
04:16

Came by your house to talk for a while
But the shutters were closed and the grass was overgrown
So I sat and I talked to myself
And when the sun finally set
Well I went for a walk, realized there’s nothing much left
If I can’t see you and I can’t feel you, then do I know you anymore?
Should I stay? Should I wait for you tonight?
Should I stay? Should I wait for you to come home?
When you finally called I picked up the phone
But your silence was the only thing that I heard over the line
Should I stay? Should I wait for you tonight?
Lord, should I stay? Yeah, should I wait for you to come home?
Should I stay and wait for you to come home?
