Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Here is a song from the wrong side of town Where I'm bound to the ground by the loneliest sound And it pounds from within and is pinning me down Here is a page from the emptiest stage A cage or the heaviest cross ever made A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home For singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong here The heat and the sickliest sweet smelling sheets That cling to the backs of my knees and my feet Well I'm drowning in time to a desperate beat And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home For singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong Feels like home I should have known From my first breath God send the only true friend I call mine Pretend that I'll make amends the next time Befriend the glorious end of the line And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home For singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong here
