Turnpike Divides 歌詞

Turnpike Divides - Thursday

 

There's a thousand black cars

Driving around in my blood stream

I'd have to take a thousand pills

To find out where their headlights lead

Is it cold New York

Is it freezing in your bed

Because I caught a deep chill

When I went over the Hudson again

 

It's alright counting city lights

Where the Turnpike divides

Waving goodbye to my former life

 

I don't want to be a self-medicator

But it's hard to sleep when you're born to run

I'm sick of living life in the Garden State Trap

But all the roads are pointing home again

 

Holy Cross has got a headstone all picked out for me

And my only job is to walk around

Until I fall down at its feet

Maybe home is just the place you can never escape:

From the Camden City graves

To the edge of the Palisades

 

It's alright counting city lights

Where the Turnpike divides

Waving goodbye to my former life

 

I don't want to be a self-medicator

But it's hard to sleep when you're born to run

I'm sick of living life in the Garden State Trap

But all the roads are pointing home again

 

And I'll be counting the city lights

Blinking on and off tonight as life passes by

And I'm left behind standing on the shoulder

Of the Jersey Turnpike

Buildings seem to rise like coffins full

Of stars getting buried in the sky

You want to laugh and dance

To be free Well alright

 

 

I've been thinking

About those days I wanted to sleep

And you'd wake me up just before you'd leave

And I'd fall back into a dream:

Walking in fresh city snow

That you'd never seen

 

And I'd never leave your side
