lyrics

Off The Rails (Tief)
Copyright 2021 All Rights Reserved

Heartbreak decisions are
Are coming down the line
It’s the way of the world these days
For the suits to rob you blind
Engines keep turning
We’re widgets in a wheel
Pulling more than our weight each day
Just to close another deal
The line keeps moving and
The bean counters upstairs
Crack the whip and pull the strings, yeah
There’s no such thing as fair

I need to look at the water
The sky and the trees
It’s the only way
To lose the chaos of the day
And just let me be

The world we live in
Has gone straight off the rails
Money, fame and influence
Have become the Holy Grail
Breaking news and warnings
Steal my piece of mind
It’s hard to take the news all day
And there’s no place left to hide
Cut my connection to the world wide web ‘cause
Internet karaoke
Isn’t the best thing for my head

I need to look at the water
The sky and the trees
It’s the only way
To lose the chaos of the day
And just let me be

Knowledge is power
Compassion is the key
Spin it any way you want
The truth will set you free

I need to look at the water
And find tranquility
Let me look at the water
So simple and serene
I need to look at the water
The sky and the trees
It’s the only way
To lose the chaos of the day
And just let me be
