The Wreck

I keep havin' this dream where I'm inside this lion's mouth
And everytime I climb right back in soon as I get out
Wake up out of breath, in a cold sweat
Ah, her leavin' almost left me for dead, knocked me down
Felt like some kind of cosmic kick in the head
I tried, I tried my best to find a way around the pain
But that light at the end of the tunnel's a train
This crash course has taken its toll
And I need god's healing hand
The wear and tear's showing body and soul
The wreck that I am
Life's a demolitions derby, man
It's a wild ride, you just try your best to hold tight to the wheel
And touch your brakes form time to time when you're headed down hill
All the king's men been trying to put me together again
But I keep on driving that same old dead end

Maybe there's somewhere for me to start all over brand new
A place in the shade of a tree I can shake off these blues, these rocks in my shoes
If insanity is strumming the same chord expecting a new song
Then, call me crazy, I've been milking the same sick cow so long
I'm tired of getting nowhere
I need a new way to feel, this old life keeps on losing its trill.
