Letra de Crossties

Well I am sweating in this crowd
Holding fast to the one I love
All the world seems alive and loud
As we relish the siren singing above
When this spirit dancing next to me
Offered something I could not believe
She said they've called me out of this world soon but
I'm glad we shared this before I leave

She laid the cross ties of her disease with her words 'cause she was weary
Felt like the beams of this cross upon my back that I already carry
And I'm telling you this story cause it was so damn bewitching
And I am singing you this story so you are forced to hear my bitching

He says he knows I won't come to visit, his voice a familiar nervous smirk
I said for sixteen years you've packed your bags but that guilt trip you're on has never worked
And you can tell me a hundred times that you're happy with this life you've made
But I know your daughter for a party wasn't an even trade

He laid the cross ties of his disease with his life 'cause he was weary
Felt like the beams of this cross upon my back that I already carry
And I'm telling you this story cause it was so damn bewitching
And I am singing you this story so you are forced to hear my bitching

Well standing here right now I know I'm about as cool as I'll ever get
Head back, blistering my lungs, lips slightly parted and wet
And if you've got the guts to hear it, this is where I'll always be
My soul's in my throat so let me clear it
And tell you that your point of view is a little different than my point of me

We lay the cross ties of our disease with our words'cause we are weary
Feels like the beams of this cross upon my back that I already carry
And I'm telling you this story 'cause it was so damn bewitching
And I am singing you this story so you are forced to hear me piss and moan
