The Wayside Lyrics

When you frame me up and hang me well
You'll see me smiling in the dark
I'll make your guests look twice and gawk
Cause I feel the colors bleeding out
Your fingers graze my shallow mouth
A subtle teardrop bends me back

That still doesn't mean you're out of my hands
Pull the covers up and take me off to sleep
And I'll be there to take you from this same mess
That took me down and out of our reality
Just the wayside's got us spellbound
Let's take Lakeshore
We're spinning out

We fall fast like the kids on a bad track
Waiting for a signal to cut it off
And stick to what we know
Just someone say to us
"Look at what you've done and all you've lost"
Those city boys got caught
It won't be long till we start drifting off
When the bells start ringing, -
It's a cop out, a waste, just some walls and a gate
(It won't be long)
Leave me hanging by a tread until you can't
(It won't be long)
Keep on living with yourself
Just bait me up and leave me sitting on your shelf
When you frame me up and hang me well
You'll see me smiling in the dark
I'll make your guests look twice and gawk

That still doesn't mean you're out of my hands
Pull the covers up and take me off to sleep
And I'll be there to take you from this same mess
That took me down and out of our reality
Just the wayside's got us spellbound
Let's take Lakeshore
We're spinning out
