Lyrics
found some shade in the shadows of doubt
behind a thousand plastic
screaming silent shouts
calm and cool
with festering regrets
a pick between my fingers on these golden frets
when i die i hope and pray
there really is a judgement day
someone standing with a clipboard in hand
to help me figure out and understand
i've done so much i'd like to know
why i feel i've got nothing to show
i really have no idea what keeps me going
broken down at the side of the road
obsessed with all these choices
and no secret code
i tried to see through the numbness and the haze
chasing after sunsets
to find some blissful days
when i die i hope and pray
there really is a judgement day
someone standing with a clipboard in hand
to help me figure out and understand
i've done so much i'd like to know
why i feel i've got nothing to show
i may not go to heaven but i'd roll the dice
i'm no angel i've paid the price
and i really have no idea what keeps me going
