Road Train Gone By - Keegan Joyce

Buffet them winds like a road train gone by

Suffer these sins like the drink’s going dry

Figure this dirt’s gonna wash out my jeans

'Cause tomorrow, I’m cleaning these sleeves

I am a contradictory man

I want my silence, but I want my band

I have to force what I know to be right

So I’m keeping you clear from my sight

Rinsing my hands in this slow-moving river

Scrubbing my soul of the stories you stole

Wiping up guilt like it’s mud that I trod

Come on, heal me of what I have got

Prancing 'round pauses like they must be in time

Hiding among chords as if they could rhyme

I see the diva in all this discord

Oh, it’s me I have got to restore

Steady on judgement and study that hand

Ready my knife, and ready my man

If I have chosen to be less than I had hoped

Well, the saving is all that I wrote

Rinsing my hands in this slow-moving river

Scrubbing my soul of the stories you stole

Wiping up guilt like it’s mud that I trod

Come on, heal me of what I have got

Dust up these boots till the leather wears thin

Wear in my hat, and wear in my grin

Keep up the image, so to keep out this girl

Oh, my ego’s about to unfurl

Rinsing my hands in this slow-moving river

Scrubbing my soul of the stories you stole

Wiping up guilt like it’s mud that I trod

Come on, heal me of what I have got

Come on, heal me of what I have got

Oh, please heal me of what I have got…
