All Trains Lead to Cocaine
Journey Through Desires: All Trains Lead to Temptation
Lyrics
I wish I could drink just a little
Expressing a desire to consume a small amount of alcohol
I wish I could drink just a little
Repetition of the desire for a moderate amount of alcohol
But a little leads to more
Acknowledging that consuming a small amount leads to more
Then I'm down at the store
Being drawn to purchase alcohol from a store
And knockin' on your door
Knocking on someone's door, possibly seeking more alcohol
For some cocaine
Expressing the desire for cocaine
I wish I could take a little taste, babe
Desiring a small taste of a substance, possibly cocaine
To put me in just the right place, babe
Wanting a small taste to achieve the right state
But a little bitty taste
Indicating that even a small taste has consequences
Puts a look on my face
Conveying the impact of a small taste on facial expression
Then I'm on the train
Boarding a metaphorical train that leads to cocaine use
That leads me to cocaine
Highlighting the progression from the taste to cocaine
I need a little bit of that love, babe
Expressing the initial need for love
Then I need a little bit more love, babe
Escalating desire for more love
Then I love you too much
Reaching a point of excess love
Then I'm cussin' your touch
Expressing dissatisfaction with intimate touch
And ain't that a little like cocaine
Comparing the dissatisfaction to the effects of cocaine
I'm gonna make my whole life
Committing to making life chaotic or messy
A new mess now
Embracing a chaotic lifestyle
Dancin' with the lady
Dancing with a lady in a white dress, possibly metaphorical
In the white dress now
Describing a situation involving a lady in a white dress
Then I'm stuck on the rail
Feeling stuck in a situation with a shovel and a pale
With a shovel and a pale
Continuing the metaphor of being stuck while working
Then I'm on the workin' train
Embarking on a working train journey
Into Saint James
Heading towards Saint James on the train
Let me go, let me go goddammit
Expressing a desperate desire to be released or escape
Let me go to the banks of the sea
Wishing to go to the banks of the sea for freedom
Let me jump in the water
Expressing a desire to jump into the water
Can't swim any harder
Struggling to swim in the dirty water
Dirty water, Jimmy's daughter and cocaine
Connecting dirty water, Jimmy's daughter, and cocaine
Dirty water, Jimmy's daughter and cocaine
Repeating the connection between elements
Dirty water, Jimmy's daughter and cocaine
Reiterating the connection of dirty water, Jimmy's daughter, and cocaine
