lyrics

I’ve been staring at these crossroads for 300 years
Stuuuuuck in the mud
Got enough to survive but not enough to live
Regrets I got more of, the past ain’t no gift

CHORUS

Been cryin all day with nothing to say
Just watching time running out on me
My life’s in the balance if I can’t get it right
Tossin dice with the devil for my fate tonight

I write death songs cuz I forgot how to live
this life it takes more than I got to give
there’s a woman who loves me she does all that she can
life on these machines it kills you fast as it can

CHORUS

This strife I learned at my daddy’s knee
Most important thing is always responsibility
Lost in translation is a truth to yourself
You kill your soul if you’re just working for wealth

CHORUS

So let’s throw down the gauntlet wipe away the tears
Try not to think of all the ruined years
We’re walking forward with heads held high
Fuck your fears man it’s time to try

CHORUS
