Running across the tracks

It´s up to you!
This ain´t no TV show,
You watch my head explode,
Ten thousand hours everyday.
No time to be afraid,
Chase up the rattle snakes,
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,
Is a risk that you must take.
I´m runnnin´ across the tracks,
(And I´m never coming back)
Oh, I´m runnin´ across the tracks,
(And I´m never coming back)
Pullin´ the blindfolds back,
All we did in life,
I´m runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
Oh, runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
We´re gonna escape this trap,
Gotta get a life.
Stuck in this prison cell,
Just like a criminal,
I count the years that went to waste.
If this road goes to Hell,
I´m right back where I fell
Made a career from my mistakes.
The ghost of self denial,
It whispers from the grave,
The road you can´t rely on,
May be your saving grace.
I´m runnin´ across the tracks,
(And I´m never coming back)
Oh, I´m runnin´ across the tracks,
(And I´m never coming back)
Pullin´ the blindfolds back,
All we did in life,
I´m runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
Oh, runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
We´re gonna escape this trap,
Gotta get a life.
And every step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, these scars are mine)
And everyday that I´d 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.
The stars aligned.
And words just can´t explain the struggle of the dead mans fight,
A dead mans fight,
And silver spoons get by the wasted mother hard earns life
A hard earns life.
Every step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, these scars are mine)
And everyday 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´m never coming back)
Oh, I´m runnin´ across the tracks,
(And I´m never coming back)
Pullin´ the blindfolds back,
All we did in life,
I´m runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
Oh, runnin´ across the tracks
(And I´m never coming back)
We´re gonna escape this trap,
Gotta get a life.
Every step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, these scars are mine)
And everyday 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.
