Each morning when I rise
I cry out to the sky, singing
Lord won't you dry these bitter tears
For all those working days, for each dollar that I raised
I can't buy the life to fill these wasted years
I gave it all away for a song
This broken name won't remain once I'm gone
And the days just don't stop
When did I lose sight of what was truly worth my time
Where were the ones to help me change my mind
I've seen this all before
Lord, it shook me to the core
How did I end up behind my father's eyes
I gave it all away for a song
This broken name won't remain once I'm gone
And the days just don't stop
I gave it all away for a song
This broken name won't remain once I'm gone
And the days
And the days
Lord the days
Oh the days just don't stop
