carl lorusso jr. - spadina station lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve got to keep myself standing somehow
a little clearness in my mind
i try to keep myself pure in thought
but i’m failing at it all the time
this delta pen & this notepad
waiting on a thought i could use
while i’m kicking here alone, with the two in the morning
last subway train westbound blues

[pre+chorus 1]
standing on the platform with my guitar
the handle’s broken on the case, so it’s under my arm
& the fella on my right, he’s all bourbon stanked & red+eyed
he says he’s been going hard, since hoffman died
[chorus]
they say the last train’s delayed, on a busted rail
& the lights in the haze tell a devils tale
& this whole d+mn world’s just a+spinnin’ freely
every light in this town is burning down on me
100 broken words make the prayer
a thousand fires wouldn’t make it any brighter down there
man, look at me, with my words so deep
or at least as deep as i can make them seem

[verse 2]
i got to keep myself standing somehow
a little bit of clearness in my mind
but i’m fading & i’m buzzing, like a pair of old headphones busting
in the bottom of the night
there’s a girl with a voice, like an angel from the skies
sings in the language of the world
i got a voice that comes from the floorboards
& fools gold wisdom in my words

[chorus]
they say the last train’s delayed, on a busted rail
& the lights in the haze tell a devils tale
& this whole d+mn world’s just a+spinnin’ freely
every light in this town is burning down on me
100 broken words make the prayer
a thousand fires wouldn’t make it any brighter down there
man, look at me, with my words so deep
or at least as deep as i can make them seem
