Runnin' Across the Tracks Lyrics


It's up to you!
This ain't no TV show
You watch my head explode
Ten thousand hours every dayNo time to be afraid
Chase up the rattle snakes
Don't let your fear control your fateThe ghost of self denial
It whispers from the grave
The road you can't rely on
Is a risk that you must takeI'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Pulling the blindfolds back
All we did in lifeI'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
We're gonna escape this trap

Gotta get a lifeStuck in this prison cell
Just like a criminal
I count the years that went to wasteIf this road goes to hell
I'm right back where I fell
Made a career from my mistakesThe ghost of self denial
It whispers from the grave
The road you can't rely on
Could be your saving graceI'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Pulling the blindfolds back
All we did in lifeI'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
We're gonna escape this trap
Gotta get a lifeAnd every step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, These scars are mine)
And everyday that I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes, I close my eyes)
At least I can say that we made it through
(The stars aligned, The stars aligned)
The stars aligned
The stars alignedAnd words just can't explain the struggle of a dead men's fight
A dead mens fight
And silver spoons get by the wasted mother hard earns life
A hard earns lifeEvery step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, These scars are mine)
And everyday that I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes, I close my eyes)
And I hope that you make it through
Yeah, I hope that you make through
It's up to you!I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Pulling the blindfolds back
All we did in lifeI'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
Oh, I'm running across the tracks,
(And I'm never coming back)
We're gonna escape this trap
Gotta get a lifeAnd every step that I aim to take
(I fall behind, I fall behind)
And every leg that I have to break
(These scars are mine, These scars are mine)
And everyday that I'd pray for you
(I close my eyes, I close my eyes)
At least I can say that we made it through
(The stars aligned, The stars aligned)
The stars aligned

Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.

The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

To date, the band have released five studio albums, the first under the name Pezz named "Watoosh!", the second under the Billy Talent name is called "Billy Talent" with the third called "Billy Talent II". The fourth album,"Billy Talent III", released in 2009, was produced by Brendan O'Brien, who previously worked with AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam and The Offspring, among others.
The fifth album called "Dead Silence" was released in september 2012.

Billy Talent have also released a live DVD/CD, "666" featuring live performances from London, Dusseldorf, and the Rock Am Ring festival, held at the Nürburgring in Germany. They have also released two live albums from London and Manchester in September of 2006, of which only 500 of each exist.

Drummer Aaron Solowoniuk revealed that the song "This Is How It Goes" was written for him by Ben with the subject being Aaron's struggle with multiple sclerosis, in an open letter to fans posted on the official website in March 2006. As a sign of the dedication to finding a cure for MS, the band hold an annual show in Canada named "F.U.MS" in which all funds go towards the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.
