| You know, the sun is in your eyes
And hurricanes and rains
And black and cloudy skies
You're running up and down that hill
You turn it on and off at will
There's nothing here to thrill or bring you down
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town
Oh Lady Luck has lead you here
And they're so twisted up
They'll twist you up, I fear
The pious, hateful, and devout
You're turning tricks 'til you're turned out
The wind so cold it burns
You're burning out and blowing 'round
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town
The fates are vicious and they're cruel
You learn too late you've used
Two wishes
Like a fool
And then you're someone you are not
And Junction City ain't the spot
Remember Mrs. Lot and when she turned around
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town |

| I've seen the most beautiful thing in the universe, too bad it isn't mine.
I'm doing alright, making enough money to get by.
Remember the time you drove all night, just to see me in the morning?
True love is something I search for night and day, now, I am just going to wait for it.
True love doesn't wait, it comes to you when it feels like it.
I stayed up all night painting and talking about the most menial things
in life, and some of the largest parts of the scheme.
You say you got that feeling again, it won't be long enough, but it may never end.
I am not a bitter husk of a man, just something someone forgot to take care of and learned independence.
I am ready to settle down and live.
I want to live.
I am tired of being used, and every word taken for slander. I am tired
of people and their silly drama. I think I am going to disappear from
them for quite some time. I've grown beyond their small scope of life
and emotion. Some people really need drama to keep spinning. I am tired
of the confusion, the lies, the words said behind closed doors as if
something were going to get done by them never being heard by the
person they mean to demean.
