lyrics

Along the road of shackled souls,
A lack of life in those helpless holes
Stuck to sticking to one lonely role
And fooling yourself into alive.
Well they say one plan from just one man
Can change the hands of time.
But can I choose? Lord, I'd rather lose
Than to fall into a lie.

Will I wake up in the mornin'?
I almost don't wanna know.
If I leave here for the evenin',
Might as well just let me roll.
If it steals me without warnin'
And there's not much left to show,
Then you just pick up where I left off...
Before I had to go.

Satisfied is just an idea of who we were told to be.
Don't concentrate on not bein' late to every last appointment that you make.
Well you'll have your doubts, you just write about it and the way you see the world.
Tales so tall, just collect and crawl and share them all some day.

Will I wake up in the mornin'?
I almost don't wanna know.
If I leave here for the evenin'
Might as well just let me roll.
If it steals me without warnin'
And I've got not much left to show
You just pickup where I left off...
Before I had to go.

I don't know when, but there comes an end, oh a middle and beginning.
And how it reads as they spread the sheet, oh will you believe in me on down the line?
Will you lift your head when they declare me dead?
And don't you dare to cry.
They set me up real nice at the top in that great Grand Ol' Opry in the sky

Will I wake up in the mornin'?
I almost don't wanna know.
If I leave here for the evenin'
Might as well just let me roll.
If it steals me without warnin'
And I've got not much left to show
You just pickup where I left off...
Before I had to go.
