on a highway unpaved

goin' my way

you're so alone today



like a ghost town I've found

there's no relief

no soul

no mercy



is it true what they say

you can't behave

you gamble your soul away



measuring a jinx of this life seems like the gristle of loneliness



don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin'



like an ice age

nice days on your way

sipping the golden days



on a riptide

freak's ride

sleep inside

a parasite's appetite



oh say can't you see

the chemistry

the parasites that clean up for me



death never hails

recycled cans

get well cards

to the hostage vans



don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin'



you're a deadweight

right straight

on your way

sunk in the midnight shade



skys burn

eyes turn

learning to counterfeit their disease



in this town where we roam

we bluff our souls

on canteen patio



drink the latest draft



the music drags

the music drags

the music drags



don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin
