Lyrics
dropped out, left Ann Arbor to play with the band
and the dive bars became a psychedelic land
the music was alive, you could see it in their eyes
a siren song, would it last until the dawn?
down by the tracks, burned out but alive
i saw you standing on the other side
why did you shiver under hot white moon
the need was deep, the end is soon
i hear Ray’s got a strip bar down in Santa Fe
invests in real estate, saves for a rainy day
some say a dream is dead, when it’s locked up in your head
no vision without light, to crawl through the darkest night
jerry didn’t make it the straight way
he stopped trying and Rita took the child away
drug deal gone bad, man thought he was had
gun fire in the night, by morning light
one dead the other in chains
down by the tracks, burned out not alive
i saw you there on the other side
no longer to shiver under hot white moon
the wound to deep, the end is soon
down by the tracks, this side of hell
i see them down, down against the rails
and i can’t stop it, under hot white moon
the need was deep, the end is soon
