Crazed and Restless

WELL THEY TELL ME I WAS BORN BLUE

GASPIN AFTER EVERY BREATH

BARELY OUT THE REACH OF THE ANGEL OF DEATH

AND THAT'S THE WAY IT'S BEEN ALL OF MY BORN IN A DAZE

THE HANDS THAT HELD ME RAISED ME CRAZED AND RESTLESS

LIKE A BLACK DOG RUNNIN THE NIGHT

FULL OF FEAR AND FIGHT

I SAID MY NEEDLE IS PINNED UP AGAINST A LONG RED LINE

TO AFRAID TO STAY HERE

TO AFRAID TO GO

STRAPPED IN UNDER A STRAIN

DEATH IS COMIN UP CLOSE

MAYBE IM JUST GOIN DOWN

FOR THE LAST TIME SO NOW IS WHEN

BUT WHEREVER I END UP THROWN

I COME UP CRAZED AND RESTLESS

WELL IM ALL BOBWIRE AND BONE

AND ILL PROBABLY DIE ALONE

SO I CARVE MY PRAYERS IN STONE

TO TRY AND BEAT THE ODDS

IM WEARY

BUT IM NOT DONE

ILL GET UP FOR ANOTHER ROUND

AND FADE YOUR PLAY BUDDY

LAY THE MONEY DOWN

AS LONG AS I STILL STAND UNDER THE SUN

AND CAN SEE MYSELF STRECH OUT ON THE GROUND

ILL REACH MY HANDS INTO THE LIVING SKY

AND REMAIN UNCHAINED

AND REMAIN UNTAMED

BUT RESTLESS
