lyrics

There's an occurrence occurring
somewhere in this town.
I'm gonna sniff it out.
I'm gonna track it down.

These drivers are crazy
Out 'chere on this road.
What's so important?
Where they tryin to go?

I made a lonely prayer
to some angels there.
I poured out my soul
but they don't care.

I broke danced at the bar.
I spun on my head.
I did the "Run from the Feds."
I did the "Getaway Car."

Now, who here among you
know what they wanna know?
They gonna make you talk.
They gonna make you walk home.

I made a lonely prayer
to some angels there
I poured out my soul
but they don't care

I told the truth too much.
More lethal than a touch.
I tried to leave this town
But the bridge fell down.

Like the moonshine
across pavement sweat,
there's a darkness too bright
to ever forget.

I made a lonely prayer
to some angels there
I poured out my soul
but they don't care
