Cold Irons Bound

Lyrics

I'm beginnin' to hear voices and there's no one around
 Well, I'm all used up, yeah, and the fields have turned brown
 I went to church on Sunday and she passed by
 My love for her is takin' such a long time to die
 I'm waist deep, waist deep in the mist
 It's almost like, almost like I don't exist
 I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound
 The walls of pride, they are high and wide
 Can't see over to the other side
 Well, it's such a sad thing to see beauty decay
 It's sadder still to feel your heart torn away
 One look at you and I'm out of control
 Like the universe has swallowed me whole
 I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound
 Cold irons bound
 There's too many people, too many to recall
 I thought some of 'em were friends of mine
 Get this, I was wrong about 'em all
 Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud
 Up over my head nothin' but clouds of blood
 I found my world, found my world in you
 But your love just hasn't proved true
 I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound
 Twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound
 Oh, the winds in Chicago have torn me to shreds
 Reality has always had too many heads
 Some things last longer than you think they will
 There are some kind of things you never can kill
 It's you and you only I've been thinkin' about
 But you can't see in and it's hard lookin' out
 I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound
 In cold irons bound
