The worst part about this is being so alone
The train is cold but it feels more like a home
Everyone in this town is getting old
The lonely are starting to feel it in their bones
And I know that someday I'll be there too
And we'll say
Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name
Because it's starting to k** me
Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name
I am the ocean, a deeply divided soul
You are the anchor that sinks me like a stone
The feelings are lost in the pull of an undertow
I'll paint them black, all the colors I let go
And I know that someday I'll be dead too
And we'll say
Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name
Because it's starting to k** me
Oh, step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name
Because I've already left this town
And it's already washed away
And you've already lost me
I won't waste your breath
I just had to get out of this mess:
Who I've been since the middle of summer
There burns a flame in me
Between the Devil and the deep blue sea
And I am not ready to join him
