The Sunshine State

Fourteen years have gone

I was working on a diesel train

You thought of moving on

But I guess I didn't feel the same

And now I find myself

With a drink in a rowdy diner

Two blocks off the interstate

In a town in South Carolina

You never call a place your home

You try to take it on your own

We level 'til the break of day

But we always fade away

When everything is said and done

When we go like everyone

I could be at work 'til late

Or in the sunshine state

Do you know my name anymore?

I haven't felt the same

In two holes in the floor

You've been moving out

In the face of change

Brought up in my doubt

Trod in with the rain

Rolling on a rapid road

With the dusty desert heat

Hauling on a heavy load

With a rusty metal sheet

And when I thought I heard you say

That all we'd ever be

Is robbers on a getaway

Or an end to the entropy

You never call a place your home

You try to take it on your own

We level 'til the break of day

But we always fade away

When everything is said and done

When we go like everyone

I could be at work 'til late

Or in the sunshine state

Ooh, ooh

We always fade away

We always fade away

Ooh, ooh

We always fade away

We always fade away
