Lyrics
Burning daylight, he says he?s alright, I sweat to God I never left home
Sunday morning, he?s always on him, and I don?t know why he keeps
Wasting his time on me
Where do you go when your river runs dry
Chasing those ghosts was the most you?ve tried (to stay alive)
And I?m not gonna bend or burn away
So stand right here my friends on these lonesome days
Black as midnight, broken brake lights, I know you never
Thought I would believe
That day is dawning, grace is falling, and I can see the smoke
And the dust clouds rising high
You try and you break me but still I rise, got too much pride
I?m running on empty but I can?t hide these tired eyes
And I?m not gonna bend or burn away
So stand right here my friend on these lonesome days
(bridge)
Say what are you gonna do boy, when they try to drag you down
Where do you go boy, when they steal away
Like shadows that drive you miles and miles from home
Where do you go when your river runs dry
Chasing those ghosts was the most you?ve tried (to stay alive)
And I?m not gonna bend or burn away
So stand right here my friends on these lonesome days
