Rye LaChance - Model Trains

{Verse 1}
The bad men always stay and the good ones die
They cross their heart, I stuck a needle in my eye
If weddings rings were made of plastic
The Earth would be dead by now
We can't love, no we don't know how

{Chorus}
If pushing model trains 'round tiny plastic table towns
Didn't make me feel like running back to Maine to settle down
I'd find a hobby in the railroad tracks
But the longer I control them, the faster I
Slip through the cracks
Getting trapped just to shatter like glass
Oh-oh-oh

{Verse 2}
I thought I'd see my dad cry for the first time I'd rеcall
But he sat there staring blankly at thе marble on the wall
My mother shed two tears and gave one to him
And I shed many more, one for each of my sins

{Chorus}
Oh, if pushing model trains 'round tiny plastic table towns
Didn't make me feel like running back to Maine to settle down
I'd find a hobby in the railroad tracks
But the longer I control them, the faster I
Slip through the cracks
Getting trapped just to shatter like glass
Oh-oh-oh

{Bridge}
I'm up to my knees in the North Atlantic
But the East York county tide has different plans for me today
So when I reach the bottom where the land is hiding still
I'll send up a postcard, signed from me to you
Would you read it through?
Oh, I hope you do
I ran back home for you

{Outro}
Signed from me to you
Would you read it through?
I hope you do
I ran back home for you
