[00:04.03]
[00:04.67]Lead me through these cities of imaginary trends
[00:08.65]something's gonna be changing come the morning time my friend
[00:12.38]as fickle as these streets are they might not even wait around till then
[00:20.45]I've got a lot to loose so come and take it from me quick
[00:24.25]everything you loose if it makes you stronger it makes you sick
[00:28.70]take these cities from me I'll build buildings up with my own bare hands
[00:35.91]
[00:36.80]the uppers aren't necessary the guilt is the coal
[00:40.24]that keeps the fire burning to drive out the cold
[00:44.41]that creeps in every corner crack and never leaves you alone
[00:48.28]till the lonely messengers come calling you back home........
[00:58.33]
[01:03.03]the trees are stacked in rows on the side of the road
[01:06.93]stripped of any dignity a birthing may have had
[01:10.83]100 thousand crucified on the Mojave I-5 line
[01:18.92]singers shepherds and salesmen all longing for someone
[01:22.89]to kill the joy of wondering and end all their desire
[01:27.31]to help them to remember that the road is nothing but a liar
[01:33.75]
[01:35.14]the uppers aren't necessary the guilt is the coal
[01:38.89]that keeps the fire burning to drive out the cold
[01:42.81]that creeps in every corner crack and never leaves you alone
[01:46.92]till the lonely messengers come calling you back
[01:51.81]
[01:52.19]to the red door, cracked and crooked walk way
[01:55.45]the fence impaling the stars
[02:00.30]ghostly keepers lead the way through railroads of abandoned cars.......
[02:09.30]the tracks and city streets cut through like scars........
[02:17.36]
[02:21.59]the uppers aren't necessary the guilt is the coal
[02:25.10]that keeps the fire burning to drive out the cold
[02:29.06]that creeps in every corner crack and never leaves you alone
[02:33.68]till the lonely messengers come calling you back
[02:37.84]home............
[02:43.37]back home...........
