1.
Felt like a bottle rocket Like a solar flash across the sky Crossed the Mississippi River Sunk a line in the middle of the night Saw my friends disappear in the mirror On the Chicago city line There's something waiting out there What it is, I can't find
2.
Iron Curtain 02:22
Never tell me the odds again I already know what it takes to be a man The radio says rock and roll ain't cool anymore Well who gives a shit what's cool anymore Iron curtain's drawn inside the hotel Resentment in these rooms holds me against my will Well they say rock and roll ain't cool anymore Well there's hidden love everywhere you look
3.
I've been pink slippin' My heart's been runnin' I left behind some friends With no time left to see them Feel like I've been runnin' out of time To make it to the big time Life's always worth the risk Cause struggling is endless
4.
Started working for the Western Upholstery Supply Last time I saw the sun shine was the last time you saw me Found a place down the street, I got more than what I need Ain't no sheets on the bed, cause I got you in my head Workin' til the day I day
5.
Took a job out of the country Hung it up long ago Let my dreams out to dry And become salt of the earth Getting behind the eight ball again Kickin' the dog on my way back in
6.
A Georgia guarantee is all I can give you To prove to you that I love you I shout your name across the great plains But I ran my mouth in the deep south I'm a doom tourist in my house
7.
I felt as lonely as an Omaha airstrip Never thought of myself as a flight risk Passing Newport pleasure signs And everyone's doing fine in the picture Everything looked big to me when I was a kid Now everything looks bigger than me than it ever did I've been bluffing all the time And everyone's doing fine in the picture
8.
Sandpaper 04:12
Digging away everything at stake Love's not for the faint of heart But I'm still clawing at the door But I'm still clawing at the door Burning up flying towards the sun Curiosity will kill ya But I'm still choosing my fates But I'm still choosing my fates Take a look at my hands
9.
There's a red light district in my mind Just trying to live between the lines And though we give our love, it never feels enough That's when you go to the dark side of the road
10.
This looks like the place to start again But it's the same industrial shit Washing dishes in a Massachusetts town Thinking about how I let you down Sometimes it's hard to hear your thoughts But your heart speaks louder than words
