lyrics

Somehow I’m alive. Call me a survivor of all my many revolutions. I’ve been hiding out. I’ve been thinking about taking one more shot at my evolution. It was do or die, but well worth a try. I got one more adventure inside me. Death comes regardless, so why is it reckless to go for broke on one last dream? I packed the car, picked up my guitar and became the sound of my madness. It’s kind of rough, but that’s cool enough. I’ve seen too much to worry ‘bout darkness. It hurts and it’s real. It’s about what I feel. Like that time you made me feel wanted. Tears in the rain, the soul and its stains, in stardust we’ve been planted. I’ve been fine. Thanks for taking the time. I’ve been to hell and I’m ringing the bell. Can you hear it? At least in spirit? Things rarely turn out they way they were planned out. The stars aren’t always aligned, dear. Never compare to anyone anywhere. It is what it is, and it is here. So strike up the band with the idea at hand. Time to beat to a heart that’s been broken. One with your tattoo. I fixed it with glue, and I offer it as a token. Having nothing to lose was easy to choose as you walk out of the train wreck. And nobody cares. Nobody shares whatever you have come to expect. I’m mad and alone, but I’m finally home. No more slavery for my creation. All that I show has come with the flow at life’s instigation. I’ve been fine. Thanks for taking the time. I’ve been to hell and I’m ringing the bell. Can you hear it? At least in spirit?
