Lyrics

God, give me one shot and I'll break right through
I am starting to be "brand new," uh
Rome is burning, you can taste the embers
I am walking hard on Spanish Stairs
My saint was silence rapping on the door
Grown up defiant wanting so much more
Me "brand new" say ("Starting over")
Me "brand new" say ("Starting over")
Me "brand new" say, I say
Give me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a stranger
Walk with millions, a delicate few
So sad how loneliness just follows you
New York City streets and avenues
Cut the concrete they march through
Me "brand new" say ("Starting over")
Me "brand new" say ("Starting over")
Me "brand new" say, I say
Give me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a stranger
I don't want to be just a passerby
Standin' in line wrapped around the world
I don't want to be just a parasite
Holding on tight
Holding on tight! Ay-ay
Hmm, I got this feeling, and it's down in my bones, and
I got this feeling, and it's burning up my soul, yeah
I got to get just one shot, baby, one more day
Got to give me one shot, baby
I got this feeling, just give me one day-day-day...
Give me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a stranger
Give me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a stranger
I don't want to be a stranger
I don't want to be a stranger
I don't want to be a stranger
I don't want to be just a passerby
And stand in some line that's wrapped around the world
I don't want to be just a parasite
Holding on tight
Holding on tight
Holding on tight
