Where does it go when the last breath leaves me
Stinking drinking I'm slowing down
Jesus Christ almighty save me
Where ever you want I'll kneel down
Busted headlights broken ribs so hoarse I can't swallow
Changed my name about an hour ago and I drive into tomorrow
Losing control - I can't take it
Losing control - man if I could
Losing control - I won't fake it
Losing cont - trol
Catch me now
I'm slipping baby
I don't know where to turn
Last time that I saw him man he did the chicken while he burned
Line 'em up I shoot 'em down no never mind to me
Contain it all the hard way I do it intravenously
So many ways to define it
It simply is a curse
And what it was that drove me here
A fifth of it was nerve
Busted headlights broken ribs so numb that I'm hollow
Changed the claim about an hour ago
I drive into tomorrowUnder the ruins of a walled city
Crumbling towers in beams of yellow light
No flags of truce, no cries of pity
The siege guns had been pounding all through the night
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the fields I'd known
I recognized the walls that I once laid
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I have built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge for I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Then I went off to fight some battle
That I'd invented inside my head
Away so long for years and years
You probably thought or even wished that I was dead
While the armies all are sleeping
Beneath the tattered flag we'd made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

This prison has now become your home
A sentence you seem prepared to pay
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the lands I'd known
I recognized the fields where I'd on
