Raleigh Days

There was no writing on the wall

You were offended and appalled

You never saw demise coming

And in a flash, you crashed, you came

Down. They were always taking trains

While on their way to becoming something else

Raleigh days

At the bar I heard you say:

"I'm gonna be somebody

Someday, someday, someday."

Caught in the corner with your back

Against the world. Into the cracks

You're falling faster than time itself

Call all your people on the line

They're putting faces to your crimes

They see a way back, man

They're something else

Raleigh days

From the Fallout Shelter stage

I heard you scream you're

"...gonna be somebody, be somebody

Someday...someday, someday."

There was no writing on the wall

You were offended and appalled

You never saw demise coming

And in a flash, you crashed, you came

Down. They were always taking trains

While on their way back, after something else

Raleigh days!

At the bar i heard you say:

"I'm gonna be somebody

Someday, someday, someday."
