Story behind the song
Just a song about what it feels like to be on the wrong side of the current economy.
Lyrics
Streets are littered with faithless prayers Like white crosses 'long the highway I look on as they get washed away Like fallen leaves in the pourin' rain I fear hearts are growin' darker As dreams're left out in the cold 'Cause when hard luck goes lookin' for a home It settles in your blood and in your bones Chorus: You take a hard look on down the tracks Miles of wood ties and steel lookin back Not a sign of any line runnin' And it feels like an awful long wait for a train that ain't comin' Spend all your life in the crosshairs Pray that each shot is a miss But some hit their mark; sear clear through to your soul And burn with the sting of a Judas kiss Dark clouds slidin' cross a threat'nin' sky All shades of gray and indigo Been so long since I've seen the sun I wonder where did all the good times go Chorus Bridge: Some say the the truest path to heaven Runs straight through hell And the better days, Well they lie just beyond I looked into the abyss Said "You can't take this man" And the abyss shot back "Shine on if you can, shine on if you can" Chorus
