lyrics

Look both ways before I cross the tracks
Look both ways and don't look back
Shake my head under the strain
Of an awaited train

Cross my heart and hope to die
Stick a needle in my eye
If I can't ride what I've kept inside
It'll be a lie

I've got a bobsled in my brain
Dodging every wrong turn that I could make
I've got a slingshot in my eye
That plucks the crows from the sky

I've watched the moon rise across from me
And dip it's embers into the sea
I tell myself to believe
I can reach it if I try

I've got a bobsled in my brain
Dodging every wrong turn that I could make
I've got a slingshot in my eye
That plucks the crows from the sky

When i met you, you were skimming stones
Every ripple reached my toes
At the last one I turned to go

I've got a bobsled in my brain
Dodging every wrong turn that I could make
I've got a slingshot in my eye
That plucks the crows from the sky
