Gas Station Roses lyrics

I sit alone inside the casual ruins knowing just what and yeh what not to do I turn the channel yeh from care to less Instead of trying to turn bad into best… or even better. Star blessed or star crossed that’s what I’ve thought Time well spent or time bought my mind gets caught. And it never occurred to me While ’round I went Gaging my fortune while I feel bereft trying to keep balance while these forces shift Past and the present form a strange collage and the future appears like some far-off mirage changing shape and form Certain that awful clown won’t come round no more heart I remove from that glass that time has past for sure And it never occurred to me While ’round I went Promises empty broken records skipped Anger and Malice yeh my tongue had slipped Finally determined, I got off that ride On honesty’s plane there ain’t nowhere to hide Changing shape and form Captured visions, long imprisoned released before my eyes transferred instance, bridges distance points in time they collide Tunnel of love it ain’t found in the sewer Gas station roses can’t replace couture I can’t engage in all those games I’d play I can’t serve up things that I used to say.
