came home to a place that you didn't dwell anymore
crossed over the past to reach what it was before
there's a moment when madness sings through the mask of freedom
it's devastating where that infinite truth is gonna lead em'
up the road and back again just to find something to do
still reveling in the old days when it wasn't through
it was life's alarm clock ringing that gave ambition a migraine
the fables that reached grandiosity now fallen prey to the insane
the bible belt, a little too tight, when you hung me with it
calmed down a just a bit when the nightmare lifted
just around the corner I see the ghosts again rounded up like cattle
there's the cowboy killer, the preacher man sitting lead in his saddle
turned against the cold wind to see what's left on easy street
strutting through the fire and clinging to the savage heat
there was destiny in the womb cutting my deal to lose
a king with a loveless court without one choice left to choose
only a fragmented hope left that exudes such litheness
a reason to travel on in the eyes of my adore, my princess
getting back in the drivers seat and clearing the cobwebs for the ride
her purpose offers sanity to a broken man that clings to a fools pride
