Born beyond the middle of nowhere
All mountains, lakes and bigotry
I longed for concrete and neon
So naive, but that's as far as I could dream
I thought of a place
That I'm yet to see
I tried to get inside
But they wouldn't let me
Enough of the rainbow's gold
It's takin' a toll on me
Enough of the rainbow's gold
And nothing seem to please me
'Cause why do I feel so cold
Standin' in the spotlight
It was the one thing I was after
The only thing I truly master
Guess I'll travel on forever
In search of the rainbow's gold
Two buses full of dreamers
Arrive here every day they say
Though I arrived by train
Snakes and lizards there were plenty
I remember feeling empty most the time
Zig-zagin' my way around
I believed I could be
Some kinda Axl Rose
Or the next Bob Dylan
I was out of control
Enough of the rainbow's gold
It's takin' a toll on me
Enough of the rainbow's gold
And nothing seem to please me
'Cause why do I feel so cold
Standin' in the spotlight
It was the one thing I was after
The only thing I truly master
Guess I'll travel on forever
In search of the rainbow's gold
