DaysOur Lives

On the road to Georgia, my heart so displaced

Like a cool blast of nothing, never showing no face

My rebel memories, they can’t freeze me into space

as I look for lightning remedies in your hurricane

‘cause you asked me for your fortune, as you misspelled my name

then you say you aren’t pleased with the answers that I gave

But that was all when I was too young to even be awake

I was a visionary in former life

and I knew when it would rain even when the sun was shining

but it was in my mind

I pass Mobile and the train tracks at dusk

And now your clear vision comes rushing to the front

That day I never made it, left you waiting in the brush

Could have jumped on board and hustled up
to where passengers were bustling

and then the next morning in the crystal light if day

I bet on a thousand horses still looking for the gate

I was just shaken by their power so thin and alkaline

I was a visionary in a former life

and I knew I’d lose you it was only a matter of time

but it was all in my mind
Now I’m committing crimes for the safety of a cell

To know where I sleep even if I don’t sleep well

You’re a good girl, just had a story to tell

I had my chance

The guard coughs like the tremor in my mind

Says you’re a golden double vision, must be corrected twice

Then I’m a note without my alibi

Strung out for your forgiveness a thousand brilliant times
