lyrics

Hey now mama, listen what I say
That old lawman he’s coming my way
He been on me since the day I was born
hunting me down till I go in the ground

I’m your son mother, and I’m a good man
I can’t do this alone here now, won’t you please hold me hand?
Darkness close around me... I can’t see the light
To me now the noon-day sun it’s as dark as the night

And in the distance I see
That lawman’s come for me

I’m always surrounded but feel out of place
It’s like I’m segregated, I’m another race
I’m feelin so tired because I never win
I never knew that being lonely is such a sin

And the tears sting my eyes
As I stare at the sky
How could I’ve ever known
He’d attack when I’s alone?

Death knocked on my door but I could not reply
I’m not bearing to live, but I’m not ready to die
It’s already over, the damage was done
I’m at the end of your smoking gun

Getting harder to breath
‘cause I’m gnashing my teeth
Hearin’ voices in my head
And they want me dead
