Lingering Thoughts

(Album: Samsara Joyride)

I hear ‘em thoughts howl babe, like a wolf pack in my brain
I hear ‘em thoughts howl babe, howling all throughout my brain
they keep on rushin’ by my ears
like blood rushin’ through my veines

anywhere I go babe, any place I try try to flee
anywhere I go - my thoughts keep followin’, followin’ me
any distant goal I reach, any need I try to please
they will be there, waitin’ for me

and when I’m lyin’ late at night, tryin’ to get some sleep
yeah I’m lyin’ late at night – my thought keep raisin’ hell with me
even though I try to breathe
they just won’t, they just won’ let me be
won’t let me be free

and when I try to kill my time – what shuts my head ain’ never enough
oh when I try to kill my time – what helps me forget ain’ never enough
whether it’s whiskey or your love
all that starts can never last
can never last

oh river – oldest friend
oh river – come take me in
oh river – oldest friend
oh river – come take me in
help me part the true, the true and the fraud

oh mother – let me in
oh mother – where have I been
oh mother – let me in
oh mother – where have I been
help me get past my lingerin’, lingerin’ thoughts
