on a highway unpaved
goin' my way
you're so alone today


like a ghost town I've found
there's no relief

no salt in the
sea


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'
