Off the Railways

Well I’ve been lookin’ for a face in the streets Callin’ hey or all you wanna be free Things gonna lie down, sunlight opens up your mindset Things gonna die down, or so I’ve heard Well I’ve been waiting on a voice in a dream Sounding off on what it already means But I’m just a youngster, ain’t we all so existential? I think I love her after all Well I try to hit you up and tell you goodbye Life is nothing but a piece of the pie And I don’t know where to go anymore Well I let it all go off the railways somedays And I’ll let you know when the world’s gonna go it’s separate ways I’ve been thinking we’ve been drinkin’ to all the wrong messages Oh I’m still hung up on every word you said Laid back and empathetic motions to strut Face it there’s only so much left in the cup But I got a head start, shortcut through the empty airwaves I’ve got a cold heart or so I’ve heard Well she talks like the kinda girls that I like And she feels tender spirits comin’ to life But I’m just a bastard, ain’t we all so open ended? I think I passed her forever now Well I try to hit you up and tell you goodbye Life is nothing but a piece of the pie And I don’t know where to go anymore Well I let it all go off the railways somedays And I’ll let you know when the world’s gonna go it’s separate ways I’ve been thinking we’ve been drinkin’ to all the wrong messages Oh I’m still hung up on every word you said
