New Again

You watch him board that train, cross the River

He saves up all his love, but he won’t deliver

He’s so tired, when he looks at them, all he can say is: “I’m doing the best I

can”

Double life for life even if he was willing is just enough to break a man

The road to hell

Is paved with good intentions

Well then this dead end road he’s walking down

Must be paved with old conventions

He says “I don’t know just who I want to be

But I don’t wanna stay the same.

Cause it’s that man gets caught in the Work-a-day

Has only his self to blame”

Chorus:

But I got to believe, it’s not too late

To Turn it all back around

Make it new again

Make it new again

You watch him get that look,

far off away

Before he left the stage, when he used to play

Before love, loss, death, taxes and reality

But he’s the last one left standing who thinks it’s a privilege to call himself a workin

man

It ain’t hard to tell

He ain’t up for conversation

He’s looking back on bar

-

room melodies

Like some glorified salvation

He says “I don’t know just how I lost my voice

But I know it ain’t really gone

And if I push myself to that breaking point

I must just break into song”
