Clay Pigeons Songtext

Never to rise again...

He found himself down by the railroad.
Meaning to leave his hometown...to tie himself down.
And as the 7:15 drew closer
He realised that no railroad track,
Would ever bring her back to him.

And so he prayed...
'God don't let me see another day'...
I feel so cold, living in a world
Where they just send you up so they can shoot you down.
Falling to earth, never to rise again...
Never to rise again...

He found himself down by the river.
Watching the leaves floating by in the pale moonlight
And as he noticed his reflection in the water
He realised his tears had run dry and he was still alive...
And so he prayed...
'God I want to see another day'...
And though I feel so alone, living in this world
If I can make it clear, you'll never touch me again
You will never touch me again...
