<b>Gasoline Soaked Heart</b> by <i>Glossary</i><br />

With a pocket of luck

I made it out to Greenville

Where I married that big American sky

While all my cynical friends

Have been camped out in the suburbs

I’ve been running around

Living a ramblin’ man’s life

From a bar stool

I was shouting out bible verses

To a ghost who’d been following me for awhile

And I couldn’t find the energy I needed

To make myself smile

These headlights are just a pair of eyes

That only open at night

To see the darker side

And these dead end streets

Only lead to dead end things

My heart’s drenched in gasoline

Don’t light a spark in me

I woke up to feel the dirt

I swear for a second I could feel a heartbeat in the earth

And the stars burned like cigarettes

And danced like ashes over my head

I couldn’t even say a word

From a parking lot

I was fighting with the shadows

And trying to run away from my own

No matter how many songs I write

He’s never going to leave me alone

These headlights are just a pair of eyes

That only open at night

To see the darker side

And these dead end streets

Only lead to dead end things

My heart’s drenched in gasoline

Don’t light a spark in me
