Gun inside my mouth this morning
Blade to my vein when I was young
I have felt the love of thousands
All I wanted now was the love of one
I grew up out on the highway
Listenin' to that desert wind
Made some deals with the deceiver
I won't lie to you, I knew that it was him
He said, I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done, yeah
I know why you do what you were doing
Why you can't stop for anyone
Anyone, ooh
Anyone, ooh
Did they tell you you were crazy
Did they lock you in a cage
Take your mind and your body
Just trying to make you behave
Did they push you to the edge now
Kneeling right into the grave
Make you lie down right next to death
Just to show her you ain't afraid
And she said I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done
I know why you do what you were doing
Why you can't stop for anyone
Anyone, ooh
Anyone, ooh
Even in your suit of armor
See the tears filling your eyes
Nothing to do but to say what's in your heart
Before you fall like a bird out of the sky
I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done
I know why you do what you were doing
And why you can't stop for anyone
Anyone, ooh
Anyone, ooh
Anyone, ooh
Anyone, ooh
