Gullible's Travels

Keep a watch out behind you from that which can blind you And die like a dream in a jar Forewarned if hindsight is all that makes you right You're running away but you won't get very far No, it's not my intention to harbor pretensions So I told you I hadn't a clue Took fate by a neck and you'll never look back You've forgotten more than I ever knew Everything's turning but mostly just turning out wrong What's lost is what's burning, the fire made the day seem so long And it's Gullible's Travels and nothing unravels this way Just another lost journey where everything's turning away See the crowds friendly roar from the cutting room floor Played it at night in his dreams Woke up, was cold and his manager had sold him It's louder than love but don't think they know what it means Nobody's talking and who tells you when to go home Yes I wore out my welcome, it's better than being alone And it's Gullible's Travels and nothing unravels this way Just another lost journey where everything's turning away Shot in the dark, landing short of the mark Can't hold a candle to you Flame's burning brightly and shines in so lightly By the light of the day it'll all seem so untrue Everything's turning but mostly just turning out wrong What's lost is what's burning, the fire made the day seem so long And it's Gullible's Travels and nothing unravels this way Just another lost journey where everything's turning away Turning away
