Once couldn’t breathe
just had this feeling time was up
all up
My heartbeat tight--
Give me the sight may I be justified

No great escape
like old time movies
when the damsel gets untied
Just as the train storms by


So many rage
so many hated
It's so strange
a desperate race
planting our stakes
In gilded charms
And passing flames

No fade away like old time movies where the cowboy shrinks toward dawn
And the credits run

Riding circles around the fray
Oh how I hope I find a way
to make sense of this orderless decay

The valleys scream
bickering echos don’t change anything
And distant gleams
promise false comforts
bring a man to his knees

no lucky break like childhood movies when your momma wakes you up
and it was just a nightmare

Our tracks vanish without a trace
A thousand miles down a still life faded
I can’t tell
What’s real or fake

riding circles around the fray
Oh how I hope we find away
To make sense of this orderless decay

Once couldn’t breathe
just had this feeling time was up
to no good
One broken window the smallest cracks corrupted every structure
Its a ghost town now
My heartbeat tight
and will tomorrow come
awash in suffering ?
so here I am
another cowboy in the sand
slowly sinking
