Blacklist Royals - The Promised Land |
|
On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert |
|
I pick up my money and head back in to town |
|
Driving across the waynesboro county line |
|
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time |
|
Working all day in my daddy's garage |
|
Driving all night chasing some mirage |
|
Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge |
|
The dogs on main street howl because they understand |
|
If I could take one moment into my hands |
|
Mister I ain't a boy, no I'm a man |
|
And I believe in a promised land |
|
I've done my best to live the right way |
|
I get up every morning and go to work each day |
|
But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold |
|
Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode |
|
Explode and tear this whole town apart |
|
Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart |
|
Find somebody itching for something to start |
|
There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor |
|
I packed my bags and I'm heading straight into the storm |
|
Gonna be a twister to blow everything down |
|
That ain't got the faith to stand its ground |
|
Blow away the dreams that tear you apart |
|
Blow away the dreams that break your heart |
|
Blow away the lies that leave you nothing |
|
but lost and brokenhearted |
