A drifter
The person who spends their life running shore to shore
Never realizing they can't outrun themselves
I've spent my whole life riding state to state lines
But still, I fear that I won't get there in time
If only an angel would fall from above
And save me from all the things I'm thinking of
Well, I know that you're watching
You're right by my side
And I wish that I, I could say, it's been alright
But every day passes, I'm losing my time
I'm just wasting away crossing all these state lines
People think that I'm someone I'm not
That I'm some kind of person who still has a heart
But the truth is I'm paranoid, gone from the start
And I'm struggling, struggling, struggling hard
Well, I know that you're watching
You're right by my side
And I wish that I, I could say, it's been alright
But every day passes, I'm losing my time
I'm just wasting away crossing all these state lines
My voice has gone shaky, eyes have grown tired
This part of me just cannot care for a while
Well, I know that you're watching
You're right by my side
And I wish that I, I could say, it's been alright
But the truth is I've started to lose my frail mind
I'm just wasting away, one more day at a time
My life, my life, it's something to see
Every time that I'm running, I'm never quite free
My life, my life, it's something to fear
There's no way in hell I can get out of here
Well, I know that you're watching
You're right by my side
And I wish that I, I could say, it's been alright
But the truth is I've started to lose my frail mind
I'm just wasting away, one more day at a time
Well, this life of mines calling
It's time to get gone
And know that spent it making the wrong calls
But up there in the stars Lord I'll finally be free
Free to be that person that I could never be
