lyrics

Off the Rails
Buddy can you hear me now will help me?
I’m a friend in need.
Alpha Charlie Pluto Foxtrot
Lately I’ve been off the rails.
Coming home late I’m checking out early.
The sun’s well up before I’m down.
Looking for love or blood I’m easy,
I just watched a pirate ship go down.

Rumble fish we get hooked early,
It’s reeling me in I was caught upstream.
Still running headlong into the headlights
Still blinded by a dream.
It’s brighter now than the scorching hot sun
It’s so big now it’s a planet dream.
It’s a planet dream.
The wind chills dangers all around me
I’m hanging on like an Autumn leaf
There’s clouds at war in the skies above me
Hot flames licking at my feet
But I am numb to my surroundings
The backward bending curve of pain.
I feel no pain pain pain.
Love deals its hurt to me again I feel no pain.
I feel no pain from love again.
