Lyrics Flotsam and Jetsam

Flotsam and Jetsam

High Noon

I've already been to heaven

So I might as well step down

Up seems like a real good offer

But I'm gonna have to turn it down

Losing heart

Wondering if it's worth saving

Well at least what remains

After it hits the pavement

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere

Trains change

They jump the tracks

They almost always

Switch back

Once again it's just me

The smoking empty shotgun shell

So close to a dream you can't touch

My very own version of hell

Playing tables and gambling

Bad hands of cards

Running out of crosswalks

Betting on the oddest odds

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere

Trains change

They jump the tracks

They almost always

Switch back

I've changed

I've jumped the tracks

I almost always switch back

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere

I've already been to heaven

So they asked me to step down

Up was a real good offer

But I screwed up big and turned it down

Lost heart

Knowing it's not worth saving

No usable remains

After it hits the pavement

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere

Trains change

They jump the tracks

They almost always

Switch back

I've changed

I've jumped the tracks

I almost always switch back

Trains change

They jump the tracks

They almost always

Switch back

You've changed

You've jumped the tracks

You've almost always switched back

And now I know for sure

You knew I was sincere

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere

I just had to make sure

You knew I was sincere
