about

Mastered by Bret Alexander, Saturation Acres studio

lyrics

So I walked away from it all,
To investigate what’s beyond the curvature of this ball
I made a rash decision to break,
And direct my tunnel vision
Towards a new path that I will take

Embarked on my mission to Tangytown
Where the eminent pay homage to gaudy clowns
Without a sound, I just walked away from it all

Oh, I couldn’t leave that rail alone, although I knew deep down
It couldn’t transport me to a place where I’d cease to be scorned
I must forsake the decision or just own it
I must ice all provisions or prove that I actually condone it

But I found no asylum in Tangytown,
Only miscreants held up high while the saints are brought down
To the bitter sounds of me grabbing hold of that third rail today

Often distorted, never directly ever observed
Oh, and so rarely acknowledged
And, God knows, never really heard
This is the vapor trail of a lost and wandering soul
Who tried, so intensely, to escape out of his self-dug hole
Oh, why did I did that hole? I had to dig the hole
