The long walk home

Location

I wasn't dead, no I wasn't alive

I trenched the earth with my own design

I kicked the dust up into my lifeless mind

I stood on a mountain I never climbed

 

I slept on a bed with open eyes

A bed never made

The bed never mine

I'd beg it and I'd fight it

To weak to even cry

 

God gave me the srength

And I used it to hide

God gave me love

And I left it behind

 

At the end of my rope

And down to the grind

I reached for the sky

For the very last time

 

I scream I am sorry

God smiled and sighed

He wrapped his arms around me

And he brought me to life

 

Now I'm in love

A woman devine

A heart of gold by nature

For whom I now walk the line
