I got a ticket to to nowhere I got no respect for the law I got no use 'cause it's all abuse It's the cutting edge of the saw
Ain't got no tiime for the future Ain't got no time for the past I'm running up a down escalator I'm going nowhere fast
I'm hanging on like a spider Blowing in the wind This storm's gonna tear a hole Right thru this web I'm in
[CHORUS] Thunder lightning The wind outside is so damn frightening But it's alright, all right Stand clear You're living in the hurricane years In the hurricane years
I've been thru major destruction I've seen thru terrorists' eyes Sometimes I feel no emotion Sometimes I break down and cry I need to walk on a wire I need a layer of skin I need a preacher breathing fire To burn away my sins
And I can't help the victims On the side of the road And I can't stop the cyclone That's about to explode
[CHORUS]
Turn my eyes to heaven Watching all the clouds roll by I see the blood moon rising I know I'm way too young to die
