Get Out

I come home from whatever job that I had that day.
Sit around my apartment while the daylight fades away.
Start to notice something I have never felt.
When there’s no one there to listen, sometimes you hear yourself.
Let’s get out, let’s get out, baby let’s get out while we can,
This town’s gonna take a swing at me and I don’t think I can stand.
I used to think that I was a calm and serious man.
One who can be depended on in accordance with the plan.
Start to wonder if that notion disappeared
Sometimes the things we cherish die while we are unaware
Let’s get out, let’s get out, baby let’s get out while we can,
This town’s gonna take a swing at me and I don’t think I can stand.
My head feels like a canyon that a river’s been a working all the way down my skull
I see my baby crying and I know I’d be a lying if I told her I could save our souls. Save our souls.
Let’s get out, let’s get out, baby let’s get out while we can,
This town’s gonna take a swing at me and I don’t think I can stand.
Let’s get out, let’s get out, baby let’s get out while we can,
This town’s gonna take a swing at me and I don’t think I can stand.

Forgotten Man

There is a demon inside of you
It creeps inside your dreams the whole night through
Death is a friend who never gives in
No matter what the hand he will always win
Take the weight off your back
Walk on further down the tracks
You may think you’re a forgotten man
But you’re bigger than the hole that you’re buried in
Leave behind a pile of everything you burned
Or leave a path for all to follow in the dirt
There is a storm thats starting to brew
Lightning bolts won’t scare the ghost from you
They always say that the good die young
I guess that means that the bad live on
Dig your whole, change your mind
Turn around there’s still a mountain to climb
You may think you’re a forgotten man
But you’re bigger than the hole that you’re buried in
Leave behind a pile of everything you burned
Or leave a path for all to follow in the dirt
I’ve revelled in those fears
Ya I’ve sang the devil’s song
And I’ve seen the demons gather ‘round as they sang a long
He hasn’t taken me but he’s taken a few
and oh tonight he ain’t taken you
