Son Volt - Streets That Time Walks lyrics

The beliefs from the status-quo picture Drop down like from a drip dispenser Leaving too many paths that lead to A one way talk with only the darkness Sun breaks on a buffer-zone madness Fleeing ghosts for all the wrong reasons With apathetic eyes to the future Complacent to the last broken pieces No conspiracy to deny you Or push you astray You've withstood the streets that time walks Still treading on a hallowed gone heyday Your grievance is wrapped in Just simple surviving Points raised, points abandoned The big dream is hollowed Hereafters have not been chosen The flame will find the oxygen Stopgap measures down Just take it for another spin No conspiracy to deny you Or push you astray You've withstood the streets that time walks Still treading on a hallowed gone heyday Walked into a field of vision Cold-hearted steps of perception The closer to the rise Is distance stood to fall Homesick along with a hometown stay Pack it up or pack it in The promise of days gone past Is a foregone situation No conspiracy to deny you Or push you astray You've withstood the streets that time walks Still treading on a hallowed gone heyday
