And I, I try to forget
Everything that’s said
So mistaken, man I’ve taken
Every step I can
Though I’m broken, I’m still holding
True to who I am
Through the trials and the liars
In this life I call my own

And I take my chances and my answers when I
Try to believe in the signs that catch my eye

Always bending, closer to the break
Blindly waiting, for the next mistake
Every moment, precious moments
Never time to take

And try, take your chances on a life that flashes by
Search for angels in these burnt out city lights
Just a blink and it all just goes away

And I try, not to die a little each day inside
And I try and I try and I try but I’m starting to slide

I try to walk on for a thousand miles

With swallowed pride, I walk this line and pray
For one more try
Stranger days and shades of grey have tried
To make me pay the price
Right through my hands,
I’ve seen so many chances go by

I’m losing my grip, I’m starting to slip
Further and further away
This mechanical trip is starting to slip
Further and further away
