Worlds Away
November 29th, 2010Never steal a coin from a wishing well
Watch your back in another mans cell
Don’t stare at the sun for a second too long
Walk away from trouble if you aint that strong
I don’t get around like I did before
People ask why but I’m keeping score
Every tiny detail yields another clue
Crooked little thoughts just slip on through
Now the moons comin out to play
Into a sky turning silver and grey
When I close my eyes
I’m worlds away
Call a man a liar tell him he’s a fool
Show him how to bend the golden rule
If he don’t like it shake him by the hand
What he doesn’t know he’ll never understand
Who you gonna trust that’s a mighty big ask
The devils got a face hidden by a mask
How you gonna know if it’s counterfeit or real
Turn a blind corner cut a sweeter deal
I just get better every day
Keeping those demons at bay
When I close my eyes
I’m worlds away
