IT CAN BE ALRIGHT AGAIN.

I wrote this song lyric awhile back when I was in Atlanta Georgia in 2017 for a dear friend who was grieving the loss of her loving husband. I have revised it today, hope to record it soon, who knows when but soon.

Life is hard in a railroad town
Lots of things there to bring you down
The clunking and the clanking steel
The donking bells are all too real
The whistle blowing all night long
Fucking up your favourite song
Engine giants busy hissing
On the platform someone’s missing
But
It can be alright again,
It can be alright again,
It can be alright again
Yeah
It will be alright again
If you step up onto the train
The train can be your salvation
You must get up onto the train
You must let it leave the station
Take that journey to somewhere new
Along the track that leads to you.
Oooh that journey to somewhere new
Along that track that leads to you
Oooh it can be alright again
Gonna be alright again
Yeah it can be alright again
It’s gonna be alright again (to fade)
