The worst part about this is being so alone The train is cold but it feels more like a home Everyone in this town is getting old The lonely are starting to feel it in their bones And I know that someday I'll be there too And we'll say Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name Because it's starting to kill me Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name I am the ocean, a deeply divided soul You are the anchor that sinks me like a stone The feelings are lost in the pull of an undertow I'll paint them black, all the colors I let go And I know that someday I'll be dead too And we'll say Step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name Because it's starting to kill me Oh, step back dear Mother, and please don't say my name Because I've already left this town And it's already washed away And you've already lost me I won't waste your breath I just had to get out of this mess: Who I've been since the middle of summer There burns a flame in me Between the Devil and the deep blue sea And I am not ready to join him
