lyrics

Woke up in the middle of a field
Echoes of a broken glockenspiel
I couldn’t figure out the song
But I knew that something sounded wrong

Clad in black
A speck of gray
At sixes and sevens
Have I lost my way

Got to take the wheel
Get myself unstuck
Turn on the headlights
Put my foot on the gas

I’m headed to sin city
Lures me back, every time
Like a moth to a flame

Neon lights & pretty pretties
Right on track
I decline I’m a man with a ring

Roaches and rats and creepy creatures
Trying to sustain

We all need to make a living
Place your bets
We’re all pawns in the game

I am caught in the middle
Caught in the middle of this game
With a hammer and chisel
Carving the shape of my fate

Cold steel under my fingers
Place is packed
Razzmatazz and a zing

Dutch courage sippy sippy
Eyes roll back
It’s that time time to begin

Vultures and cats and greedy preachers
Trying to sustain

Make my way into a new day
Excuse me please there a night train coming my way


I am caught in the middle
Caught in the middle of this game
With a hammer and chisel
Carving the shape of my fate
