PUBLISHED:  Feb 14, 2009
DESCRIPTION:
Title Track from the CD Seventh and Trade. Video is VERY simple: just the cover art and the song.

I'm trading dreams with the drag queens
On the corner of Seventh and Trade
Yeah, I'm trading dreams with the drag queens, in their smokescreens
God damn the grand schemes when the dreams start to fade

Outside the kingdom is dead calm, you won't meet a sinner, they say
Around back's the jail, and the smokestacks, and the train tracks
Where the smokers and sinners have all gone to play

Save me Jesus, save me sinners
Save me train tracks, save me Trade
Save me cop shop in the backdrop
Save me downtown, lovely ghost town
From the grand schemes that I've made

Delilah is lit up like Christmas, Jimmy's blue jeans are tighter than sin
Tequila's been tickling the man at the bar, tobacco-stained walls are comforting him
And I like the view from this window, the one that's been bricked up for years
See Jesus, he's saving across at the mission, his big neon light's gonna bring me tears

There's no romance for in this city, save the corner of Seventh and Trade
Where afflictions, addictions, and sweet contradictions all come to play when the lights start to fade
