Looking at a face I thought I'd recognize
Beginning only now to finally realize
Looking for the person I thought I'd be
Staring at the one that they all see
A noble man upon a narrow road
Straightened back bent by a heavy load
Rusted view swept by a furnace blast
A single misstep that became his last
Stranger's breath stretched out to fill my lungs
One hand upraised against the lashing tongues
One hand reaching down to pull me up
And a million more to tear down above
I don't think it's gonna be ok
I don't think it's gonna be alright
I don't think it gonna be your day
But it just might be our night
I don't think we're gonna see tomorrow
Hell, we've barely even seen today
Even if we end up sliding backwards
We are gonna go my way
Everything here that you see
This is just the way I've been
Since the young age of thirteen
When they took it away from me
I was taken away from me
I was taken away from me
And left sky high and drowning
I am taking it all back
I am taking it all back
And i'll leave it ground down
Burnt and rusting
Every thing here that you see
This is just the way I've been
Since the young age of thirteen
When I gave it all away
