This Old Town

This Old Town
Living free is gaining on me
Can't keep ahead of my dreams
My relief turned out a thief
Smooth as rocks in the stream

This old time is a sad affair
You be glad you're not there
It ties your hands
It spikes your drink
I'd say more, but i can't think
Lazy Jim took a bottle with him
Tried to flag down a train
Left a note
Couldn't read what he wrote
A light came on in my brain
(Chorus)
The hills are gold
Mornings are cold
Don't know a soul on the street
I keep to myself like everyone else
Nobody says much to me
Go to bed, fight thoughts in my head
In the two in between wake and sleep
Rats to kill, contracts to fill
It's on ice, but it won't keep
(Chorus x2)
Vivir libre me está alcanzando
No puedo mantenerme al frente de mis sueños
Mi alivio resultó ser un ladrón
Suave como las rocas en el arroyo

Esta vieja ciudad es una triste historia...
