SWERVEDRIVER – LAST TRAIN TO SATANSVILLE
You look like you've been losing sleep
Said the stranger on a train
I fixed him with an ice-cold stare
And said I've been having those dreams again
In one dream there's this girl I love
And we dance ev'ry waking breath
And in the other they've thrown me in a cell
And they're trying me for her death
I'm only young and young in love
As I hold that girl today
But I'm old and tired in the cell
And I've nigh-on withered away
Y' see my babe has gone away too long
And I'm choking back the tears
Dishevelled star in a burnt-out bar
And I'm talking in my drink
She promised me the world and more
How could she do this to me?
And now mine's tumblin' down around
But at least my eyes can see
And those stars in the sky are for me!
So as this fagged-out Tinseltown
Waves so long to the sun
I lay here calmly on my bed
And the trigger of my gun
And should that no-good woman show up
Dancing from a dream
I'll squeeze it tight and not think twice
And relish ev'ry scream
