• North Carolina - Melissa Ferrick
• North Carolina - Devil Makes Three

im a mile and a half off of the tracks
in Raleigh, North Carolina
with my
foot all jammed up from driving
14 hours
and my body cant sit upright
hanging around watching the t.v. on mute
listening to all of my money making peers
yeah and its
hard not to go to that
place in my head
thatll stop me from ever leaving this room
yeah and its all so confusing
because im all worked up
because all my thoughts are tangled into one
panicked line of white noise
drown out the voices
drown out the noise
drown out the bitterness yeah that I have stored
drown out my wanting
drown out the fear
you know that everything ive worked for
is just going to
disappear
because ever since I left you
ive got no one to call
ive got nothing to do but sit around and think about
how I could have not hurt you
I am so sick of feeling so sorry for myself you know I
go from I go from insanely happy
to no I dont want to be around anybody else
im not sure if you know exactly how you feel about me
let me tell you how you
feel about me
drown out the voices
drown out the noise
drown out the bitterness yeah that I have stored
drown out my wanting
drown out the fear
you know that everything ive worked for
is just going
disappear
so I pretend im connected
I pretend I can feel
I pretend I care about what you think
cause intensity
its never really
been a problem for me
so im sorry if I scared you
I just want to be loved...
drown out the voices
drown out the noise
drown out the bitterness that I have stored
drown out my wanting
drown out the fear
you know that everything ive worked for

Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner starin'
Knocked the wind outta me
Well dime to a dollar now, and that dollar back to a dime
I'm wonderin' how I been wasting all that precious time
I just been sitting down here on that railway line
Thinkin' about what used to be mine
Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
Just watchin' days like hours all fly on by
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
Wonderin' how many years it's been
Singin'...
Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner starin'
Knocked the wind outta me
Well if I'd a known that things woulda ended up this way
I would have never left my happy home anyway
I would've stayed down on my bended knees and prayed
Hopin' I would never see this day
Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
Just watchin' days like hours all click on by
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
Wonderin' how many years it's been
Singin'
Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner starin'
