"Born On A Train" lyrics
"Born On A Train"
Some roads are only seen at night
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs
But some nights the neon gas gets free
And turns into walking dead like me
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
Well, I know that you were never young
And I know you probably won't get old
But, honey, nobody's gonna hurt you anymore
And nobody's gonna make you wanna die
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
I'll go some cold and grey morning
And you won't remember anything
Well, some people don't believe in dying
But some of us don't believe in life
And I've been making promises I know I'll never keep
One of these days I'm gonna leave you in your sleep
I'll have to go when the whistle blows
The whistle knows my name
Baby, I was born on a train
Baby, I was born on a train

Guided By Voices - "A Salty Salute" Disarm the settlers
The new drunk drivers
Have hoisted the flag
We are with you in your anger
Proud brothers
Do not fret
The bus will get you there yet
To carry us to the lake
The club is open
Yeah,...
Belle & Sebastian - "Simple Things" If you want me I'll be there
A boy to deal with all your problems
But part of the deal
Is for you to feel something
If you want me look me up
I don't exist in usual places
Subtle as the wind...
Smog - "I Feel Like The Mother Of The World" Whether or not there is any type of God
I'm not supposed to say
And today
I don't really care
God is a word
And the argument ends there
Oh do I feel like the mother of the world
With two children...
Sun Kil Moon - "Neverending Math Equation" I'm the same as I was when I was 6 years old
And oh, my God, I feel so old
I don't really feel anything
On a plane, I can see the tiny lights below
And oh, my God, they look so alone
Now, do they...
Destroyer - "Destroyer's The Temple" And though the solitudes have won,
I cannot begin to crave you.
Please spring us, Madeline, from these rusted jails of lust we live in;
I'm living in...
I will find you, Lord, in the classified loves...
