I kept the right ones out And let the wrong ones in Had an angel of mercy to see me Through all my sins
There were times in my life When I was goin insane Tryin to walk through the pain When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor Yeah, I thought I could leave But couldn't get out the doorI was so sick and tired Of livin a lie I was wishin that I would die
It's amazing With the blink of an eye You finally see the light It's amazing When the moment arrives That you know you'll be alright And I'm sayin a prayer For the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's a permanent vacation And how high can you fly with broken wings?Life's a journey, not a destination And I just can't tell just what tomorrow will bring
You have to learn to crawl Before you learn to walk But I just couldn't listen to All that righteous talk was out on the street just tryin to survive Scratchin to stay alive ...
