lyrics

Just another day on the gravy train
Sitting by the window
Looking at the warm rain
Lots of easy ways to feel the same
Keep you waiting in the distance
So I can't hear you call my name

I ran out of breath in another race
Signed away the day job
And I got myself a suitcase
But I caught up to me in another place
Lucky by the sunset
Just time was all it takes


But don't you know that I'll still
Keep my eyes peeled wide
in the stream of cars & pesticide
Keep your fingers tied
To hold you on the other side
As another day pretends to go forever more
Like a bright light in a hall of mirrors
Blinding out the door

Just another day on the gravy train
See you when the dreams come
Left you when the sun came
Just another dawn in the pouring rain
Looking at the curtains
wearing off the sleep-stains

But don't you know that I'll still
Keep my eyes peeled wide
in the stream of cars & pesticide
Keep your fingers tied
To hold you on the other side
As another day pretends to go forever more
Like a bright light in a hall of mirrors
Blinding out the door
