Bound To The Tracks Lyrics

Guess I missed the caution in your cautionary tale

Now I'm bound to the tracks and bound to fail

Didn't see the ocean when you started to set sail

Now I'm bound to the tracks and bound to fail

Don't bother pulling the wool over my eyes

You don't have to waste your precious energy with lies

You've been wearing army boots and I can't find the trail

Now I'm bound to the tracks and bound to fail

You just keep on laughing, I can't tell that you're amused

That I'm bound to the tracks and bound to lose

I just shrug my shoulders if I ever have to choose

'Cause I'm bound to the tracks and bound to lose

Don't bother making up a story just for me

I'm not aware there's anything wrong for me to see

There's no opportunity to even get confused

'Cause I'm bound to the tracks and bound to lose

Oh, I am the happiest of men

My illusions fill my entire field of view

Oh, go ahead and do that thing again

'Cause I could not be angry if I wanted to

'Cause it just will not get through

That this is how you punish me for every single day

That I'm bound to the tracks and bound to pay

I'm a grinning idiot and know no other way

Yes I'm bound to the tracks and bound to pay

Don't bother writing me a letter when you go

Just close the door behind you and I won't even know

This is my escape and this is how I plan to stay

I am bound to the tracks

I am bound to the tracks

I am bound to the tracks and bound to pay
