I've crossed every road
Read every sign
Paid the toll
Got left behind
Like a rolling stone trying to keep me between lines
Can't waste precious time
And press your luck
Commit the crime
Play stick ‘em up
'Cause it's one life or another when the pistol bucks
Everybody riding the crazy train
codeine, fentanyl, and cocaine
We all do anything just to kill the pain
In a world of hate
You gotta fight for love
Every night you pray
But it's not enough
When you beg to change, and the good Lord calls your bluff
If you live life by the dollar,
Then you're living just to die
You could be something you ain't
but you can’t outrun a lie
God don't promise us tomorrow
you either follow or lead the blind
I could sell my soul and buy me a little time
I'd rather have my peace of mind
When you’ve seen every low,
felt every high,
takes double dose just to get you by,
And you're oh so close to throwing it all away
In a world of hate
You gotta fight for love
Every night you pray
But it's not enough
When you beg for change, and the good Lord calls your bluff
If you live life by the dollar
Then you're living just to die
You could be something you ain't
But you can’t outrun a lie
God don't promise us tomorrow,
You either follow or lead the blind
I could sell my soul and buy me a little time
I'd rather have my peace of mind
You could feed the poor and so much more
still you just might find
No one escapes until you face
The sins you left behind
Everybody riding crazy train
codeine, fentanyl, and cocaine
We all do anything just to kill the pain
If you live life by the dollar
Then you're living just to die
You could be something you ain't
But you can’t outrun a lie
God don't promise us tomorrow
You either follow or lead the blind
I could sell my soul and buy me a little time
I'd rather have my peace of mind
