Verse 1

I'm closer to the golden dawn,
I can't believe the wagon's gone,
It's history   
I'm living in a callous realm,
Where others seem to dig it
Just too much reality   
I'm frightened by the total goal,
I'm drawing to the ragged hole,
And I ain't got the wagon anymore,
No, I ain't got the wagon anymore   

Verse 2

I'm the twisted name on Uma's eyes,
I'm living proof of Cindy's lies,
Of destiny   
I'm drawing between the light and dark,
Where others see their targets,
I can't see anything   
Should I leave the engine on,
To listen to that mountain song,
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought,
And I ain't got the wagon anymore

Chorus

Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
The knowledge comes with death's release
Ahh oh....   

Verse 3

Not too stable hanging by a string
Can't face the thoughts no wheels will bring
I gotta go   
It's bad enough being at home
Without a way to leave the damage
Is gonna show   
If I don't explain what you oughta know
You can tell me all about it at the next ball show
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thought
And I ain't got the power anymore...
[Chorus] (x3)
Don't believe in yourself
Don't deceive with belief
The knowledge comes with death's release
Ahh oh....
