lyrics

Well all my clothes are dirty
& the soles of my boots have worn down
& working hard seems
To be not working out
& as I watch the home I was building
Burn to the ground
Ashes & memories
Are all that are found

The days are getting shorter
As clouds gather for the storm
& the nights get colder
& I'm trying to hard to stay warm
& as I shake all over
Rocking myself to sleep
I pray that I will find peace
Somewhere in my dreams

Don't give me no bottle cause I won't drink a drop
& I don't need a needle cause my veins have closed shop
& rather feel pain than be numb one more day
At least I'll feel alive
With tears in my eyes
