Reading on the Railroad Tracks Lyrics

There's comfort in your chaos

There's beauty in your blues

Sparkling eyes and summer nights

High on my perfume

Something about your roughness

Makes me feel more like a girl

I just want to be in your world

Everything is boring

When you're not around

Kicking rocks and ticking clocks

What do I do now

Put my hand upon the stove just to feel the burn

I just wunna be on your world

I been starting fires

I can't put out on my own

I been looking out for trouble every day that you been gone

Don't know why but

I breathe better in a burning room of smoke

I been living on distractions for too long

It's like reading on the railroad tracks

The only place I can relax

Nothing ever happens in this town

Think I

Hear a whistle in the wind

It's probably coming round the bend

We all gotta get our thrills somehow

Oh oh

I found you in the desert

Shining in the sand

Picked you up and fixed you up

Held you in my hands

Sharper than imagined

And even though it hurts

I just wunna be in your world

Now my ears are ringing

It's too quiet in my head

Ceiling fan goes round and round

Laying on my bed

I'm part of your collection

On your string of pearls

I just wunna be in your world

I been starting fires

I can't put out on my own

I been looking out for trouble every day that you been gone

Don't know why but

I breathe better in a burning room of smoke

I been living on distractions for too long

It's like reading on the railroad tracks

The only place I can relax

Nothing ever happens in this town

Think I

Hear a whistle in the wind

It's probably coming round the bend

We all gotta get our thrills somehow

Oh oh

It's like reading on the railroad tracks

The only place I can relax

Well we all gotta get our thrills somehow
