Billy Talent - Runnin' Across The Tracks

It’s up to you! This ain’t no TV show You watch my head explode Ten thousand hours every day No time to be afraid Chase out the rattlesnakes Don’t let your fear control your fate The ghost of self-denial It whispers from the grave The road you can’t rely on’s A risk that you must take I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape this trap, ‘gotta get out alive Stuck in this prison cell Just like a criminal I count the years that went to waste If this road goes to hell I’ll fight back when I fail Made a career from my mistakes The ghost of self-denial It whispers from the grave The road you can’t rely on Could be your saving grace I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape the trap, ‘gotta get out alive Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes At least I can say that we made it through The stars aligned, The stars aligned And words just can’t explain the struggle of a dead man’s fight And silver spoons can’t buy the wisdom of a hard earned life Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes And I hope that you make it through Yeah I hope that you make it through It’s up to you! I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m pullin’ the blindfolds back, on a dead end life! I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m runnin’ across the tracks, and I’ll never go back I’m ‘gonna escape the trap, I gotta put up a fight! Every step that I aim to take I fall behind, I fall behind Every neck that I had to break These scars are mine, these scars are mine Every day that I pray for you I close my eyes, I close my eyes At least I can say that we made it through The stars aligned, The stars aligned The stars aligned!
