lyrics

lyin' awake
in the city of snakes
with Great Lake water runnin'
through my veins
I'm being pulled away

like pallets on the freight
that labors by
shakin' pictures off the walls
and outta my mind
I'm been' pulled away

starin' at my feet
on the hardwood floor
thinkin' what's stashed beneath
the boards...
things I said and didn't mean

and some photos that I took
through stained glass eyes
are scars like atoms
on endless time
I'm bein' pulled away

you won't have to tell me twice
I keep one foot out the door all night
when the wind blows
she's on my mind
every year around this time

after every storm and equinox
time forges ahead
and we pull back clocks
winter is here
and summer is never gone

and I cashed out on all the cans
I drained
and went west on a nervous holiday
I'm being pulled away

you won't have to tell me twice
I keep one foot out the door all night
when the wind blows
she's on my mind
every year around this time

lying' awake in the city of snakes
with trains derailin' inside of my brain

you won't have to tell me twice
I keep one foot out the door all night
when the wind blows
she's on my mind
every year around this time

oo la lala, la lala, oo la lala, la lala
