The railroad tracks through town were all live-wired
Over all the ground from past 25 to the coast of Boston
Cash, credit, sold and shut down
Put the fences up and inspired heavy feet from bridge to water
And we never found our longings til we lost them
To settling for less in the forms of our ambitions
But never paychecks
To lowering the standards below blows
Deranged as empty ghosts of candor
And stubble on a chin
So stumble on
The world’s just out to get the best of anyone
Who thinks they’ve got it all figured out
It’s a long way
She demands we’re all the same
As grains of sand stuck outside an hourglass
And I’m sick of slipping through all of the cracks
I can taste the water
I see it as I fall farther
If we climbed the fence
We’d be taller than your father
But would you bother?
So stumble on the front lawn
Drink from the day to the dark to dawn
And hear a lonely song
That only plays when all the booze is gone
