Cold Irons Bound

I'm beginnin' to hear voices and there's no one around

Well, I'm all used up, yeah, and the fields have turned brown

I went to church on Sunday and she passed by

My love for her is takin' such a long time to die

I'm waist deep, waist deep in the mist

It's almost like, almost like I don't exist

I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound

The walls of pride, they are high and wide

Can't see over to the other side

Well, it's such a sad thing to see beauty decay

It's sadder still to feel your heart torn away

One look at you and I'm out of control

Like the universe has swallowed me whole

I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound

Cold irons bound

There's too many people, too many to recall

I thought some of 'em were friends of mine

Get this, I was wrong about 'em all

Well, the road is rocky and a hillside's mud

Up over my head nothin' but clouds of blood

I found my world, found my world in you

But your love just hasn't proved true

I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound

Twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound

Oh, the winds in Chicago have torn me to shreds

Reality has always had too many heads

Some things last longer than you think they will

There are some kind of things you never can kill

It's you and you only I've been thinkin' about

But you can't see in and it's hard lookin' out

I'm twenty miles out of town in cold irons bound

In cold irons bound
