|
There was a time I could not cry |
|
But that has left me now |
|
For 7 years I could not dream |
|
But now that's done |
|
There were songs I could no sing |
|
Words I could not know |
|
But now they found me on a bridge |
|
And they broke my heart |
|
There was a way I used to talk |
|
I cannot recognize |
|
And now my language cannot give me what I need |
|
I tore it from my bible and I kept it from my gob |
|
I would not lose to junkies on the street |
|
It hit me so hard |
|
I could not see |
|
That shot was only meant for me |
|
And all the faces that I knew |
|
They were lying |
|
When the hard road went back to sand |
|
And with the wheel still in my hand |
|
I built a highway out of dust |
|
And I was flying |
