Sierra (Live)

Sierra and me keep on trying,
But I always seem to be to late for the train,
I keep on dying,
But the cigarettes take time,
The drugs take the edge away.

Sierra was dancing with her cowboy hat on,
Dancing all night to all her favorite songs,
At random parties.
Changed the needle on the record machine,
Changed the rhythm, then changing the scene,
So it seemed.
It's a cigarette she needs,
Then she falls asleep.

On blue days she was lying in
castles in clouds in the blue blue skies,
She dresses to impress us,
Still looks sad,
But nobody ever knows why.
Center of attention,
All the people too close, but they're still too far,
Look at her dressed up a bad idea,
We're taking this to far.

Sierra was dancing with her cowboy hat on,
Dancing all night to all her favorite songs,
At peoples' parties.
Changed the needle on the record machine,
Changed the rhythm then changing the scene,
So it seemed.
A man is his own prison she said,
She read it in a magazine

The people I love keep on dying,
And the people I love keep on moving away,
Somebody just went out to Paris,
Somebody to a country, I can't pronounce its name.

Sierra she was trying,
Sierra you see,
Was always late for the train,
Sierra you see,
Kept on dying,
The cigarettes took time,
The drugs took Sierra from me.
