[Intro]
[Verse]
The neon light flickers red
Wishing I was home in bed
Old Jimmy pulled up in a truck
Told me about his sudden luck
He didn't see my greasy hands
Or all my failed and broken plans
He’s heading out to Tennessee
Far away from guys like me
[Pre-Chorus]
He bought a soda and a map
Adjusted his designer cap
The bell rings as he walks away
Nothing left for me to say
I’m just the guy behind the glass
Watching all the seasons pass
[Chorus]
But I got a ticket in my vest
Putting my future to the test
Crumpled paper, silver dust
In the numbers I will trust
One day I’ll leave this town
And never let the anchors down
Yeah, I’m waiting on a win
Let the better life begin
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, I’m feeling fine
Walking on a thin line
Waiting for the sun to shine
[Verse]
The coffee machine starts to hiss
Thinking of the things I miss
High school halls and Friday nights
Underneath the stadium lights
Now I’m scrubbing down the floor
Watching through the sliding door
Sarah stopped to fill her tank
Money in her father’s bank
She looked right through my name tag
Holding up a plastic bag
[Chorus]
But I got a ticket in my vest
Putting my future to the test
Crumpled paper, silver dust
In the numbers I will trust
One day I’ll leave this town
And never let the anchors down
Yeah, I’m waiting on a win
Let the better life begin
[Bridge]
The organ plays a lonely tune
Underneath a paper moon
Is it envy or just pride?
Everything I keep inside
The engine roars, the tires scream
Waking from a dusty dream
I’m scratching off the gray
To find a better way
[Solo]
[Verse]
The clock is stuck at four-fifteen
The world is grey and dull and mean
But if the seven meets the three
Maybe I can finally be
Someone that they’d recognize
Without the static in my eyes
I’ll buy a car and drive it fast
Leave the oil and grease in the past
Just one more hour until the dawn
Before the morning light is gone
[Chorus]
But I got a ticket in my vest
Putting my future to the test
Crumpled paper, silver dust
In the numbers I will trust
One day I’ll leave this town
And never let the anchors down
Yeah, I’m waiting on a win
Let the better life begin
[Outro]
