This is a song from my new album, you can check it out here: http://www.myspace.com/johnnymainstream
Old Cathole Road
All of the doors in my house are closed
so nobody knows I'm home
and all of the locks on those doors are shut
so nothing can get in or out
All of my stuff is piled up in boxes
in the corner of my room
I never did get around to unpacking
I just didn't see the use
'cause when I'm done, I'm done
and when I'm wrong, well I'm wrong
and when that train comes round the next bend
you best believe I'll be on
All of my dreams are boiled down to cassette tapes
on the radio
and All of the creatures in this town are vultures
feeding on airwaves
All of the people I once knew are strangers
saying "hey Matt, is it true?"
I'll change my name and dye my hair so I look different
and nobody will know it's me
'cause when it's spite, it's spite
but when I'm right, goddamn I'm right
and when that train rolls round the next bend
I'll be bound west by the night
it's always been somewhere, it's always been somewhere
it's always been somewhere I can't stand
you've always been someone, you've always been someone
you've always been someone I can't compete with
