Dying to Live Again

I walked these streets till sundown

I understood this old hard town

I’d sit at the bar till 3 am

Hustlin’ jobs you steal the food

I’ll wait and listen, then make my move

I can’t see beyond these walls I built

Chorus~

I was chasing those lights

While the time slipped on by

I’m dying just to live again

The hardest thing I ever done

Was hold my love light in my arms

And watch while those steel strings bleed

Take me up, take me down

Put my feet back on the ground

Now I don’t think I’m ever gonna leave

Chorus

Lay yourself down on the bed

Call my name like you never did

It just so happens I’m free tonight

I’m tired of being pulled so hard

My wisdom has knocked down the stars

Things ain’t what they seem at all

Chorus
