Self-Righteous Wall Lyrics
Betting on another long shot
'Cause the sure shot's done past
You walk along straight and narrow
But you're barefoot in broken glass
You sleep a lot where the sunshine
Stays locked up in a hole
You can't stand to let the light in
'Cause your heart may wanna roam
You tellin' me I've lost it all?
You tellin' me I've hit the wall?
Your eyes melt to the windshield
As your soul runs untied
Swerve on the bad side of luck
Waiting on the sign of sunrise
You can't help help but wonder
How you lost all control
I guess you just couldn't keep up
With the wild horse that you stole
You tellin' me that I've lost it all?
You tellin' me I've hit the wall?
You sent yourself on the back steps
And you feel yourself grow old
Your grey hairs start running back
To a place you left so cold
Well put yourself another piece of wood
On the fire down below
'Cause you can bet it's gonna be hot
When you get to where you're gonna go
You tellin' me I've lost it all?
You're tellin' me I've hit the wall
'Cause the sure shot's done past
You walk along straight and narrow
But you're barefoot in broken glass
You sleep a lot where the sunshine
Stays locked up in a hole
You can't stand to let the light in
'Cause your heart may wanna roam
You tellin' me I've hit the wall?
As your soul runs untied
Swerve on the bad side of luck
Waiting on the sign of sunrise
You can't help help but wonder
How you lost all control
I guess you just couldn't keep up
With the wild horse that you stole
You tellin' me I've hit the wall?
And you feel yourself grow old
Your grey hairs start running back
To a place you left so cold
Well put yourself another piece of wood
On the fire down below
'Cause you can bet it's gonna be hot
When you get to where you're gonna go
You're tellin' me I've hit the wall
