Save My Soul

There I was in this world you couldn't imagine

With spirits fighting to stay alive

Makes me wonder what the hell just happened

Or will I make it through the night

Now Peter's asking about my time on earth

I said I took it day by day

You know I've made quite a few poor choices

Think you'd let me in or is it too late?

Think you'd let me in or is it too late?

Woah oh oh

I don't wanna die

Why do I have to save my soul?

Woah oh oh

Never thought that I

Wasn't ever gonna grow old

I'd spent my life south of the Mason Dixon

It didn't matter either way

There were times, things were never better

And lots of times I felt ashamed

Cause if you knew me when I was just a young lad

I know my mom might say the same

My early days coulda been less eventful

Wouldn't have had it another way

Wouldn't have had it any other way

Woah oh oh

I don't wanna die

Why do I have to save my soul?

Woah oh oh

Never thought that I

Wasn't ever gonna grow old

And now he's got me at the gates asking questions,

But I had my own, and let 'em fly

Where's this place I'd end up and where we're standing?

I don't understand your reasons why

Now I ain't too sure I belong here in the first place

Does this mean I'm 'bout to die?

He shook his head, said, give it a day or two and come back

Maybe a few days I'll change my mind

"Maybe a few days I'll change my mind"

Woah oh oh

I don't wanna die

Why do I have to save my soul?

Woah oh oh

Never thought that I

Wasn't ever gonna grow old
