Crooked Railroad - New West

Again those voices talk to me Trying to manipulate me Wish it would end before I'm giving in to them Two faces, one name Zero empathy for this disarray Cut my head off to see the misery within All these lies in my mind I'm never good enough All this time I keep saying I'm never good enough All these lies in my mind And I'm not giving a fuck Wishing it would stop Before I give it up I fight To end my crooked mind I'm tired of everything that's weighing up my life I tried To bend to please you right I'm tired of this shit to make you satisfied Adapt, reject Take it out of my head Is this my voice or is this somebody else? The only suspect that I see is myself Behind the masquerade I fell victim to my own delusion Is this my voice or is this somebody else? I fight To end my crooked mind I'm tired of everything that's weighing up my life I tried To bend to please you right I'm tired of this shit to make you satisfied Cut my head off to see the misery taking the best of me

Railroad, she left me standing on the line Railroad, she's really leaving me this time Leaving on the midnight train Leaving, never gonna come back again I'm living alone, a place of my own A bed, a chair and one back door Something went wrong with the words to my song And now she ain't around no more Something she said as she lay on my bed Six or seven hours ago I guess I was wrong I really didn't think she would go Railroad, she left me standing on the line Railroad, she's really leaving me this time Leaving on the midnight train Leaving, never gonna come back again Her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me I said her face was always smiling, guess she was always laughing at me If I'd realised I'd be less surprised to find That she was laughing at me

I feel like an old railroad man Ridin' out on the Bluemont Line Hummin' along Old Dominion blues Not much to see, and not much left to lose And I know I can walk along the tracks It may take a little longer But I'll know how to find my way back I feel like an old railroad man Who's really tried the best that he can To make his life add up to something good But this engine no longer burns on wood And I guess I may never understand The times that I live in Are not made for a railroad man I feel like an old railroad man Gettin' on board at the end of an age The station's empty and the whistle blows Things are faster now, this train is just too slow And I know I can walk along the tracks It may take a little longer But I'll know how to find my way back

Oh, ho-ho-ho! I knew I was gon' see- I knew I was gonna see you again! I knew I was gonna see you again Where's your goddamn book bag at?
