Floodlights
Lyrics
Where did I go wrong, and it wasn't too long ago.
I didn't think I would ever change me.
but I know that it did, That the fruit that I was tempted by.
It didn't sink in, until the lights flashed in my eye.
And I knew they were flying up above in the sky.
I wouldn't let up until I couldn't push anymore.
And I thought if I ever had a chance before,
And I was set up, and now I'd say my chances are poor.
And you run for your life,
And you hide from the lights as they shine from the sky.
When your life's on the line,
And you think in your mind, are you ready to die?
How can I go on, and I'll live a long life you know
If I could outrun the whole damn state
And I think of the time that I didn't have to run
And then I thought it, I may never see the sun
In the morning all I got left is my gun
And I will use it to get myself out of this mess
And I thought if I'd ever taken more or less
Then I'd abuse it and all I'd have left is my stress
And you run for your life,
And you hide from the lights as they shine from the sky.
When your life's on the line,
And you think in your mind, are you ready to die?
I didn't think I would ever change me.
but I know that it did, That the fruit that I was tempted by.
It didn't sink in, until the lights flashed in my eye.
And I knew they were flying up above in the sky.
I wouldn't let up until I couldn't push anymore.
And I thought if I ever had a chance before,
And I was set up, and now I'd say my chances are poor.
And you run for your life,
And you hide from the lights as they shine from the sky.
When your life's on the line,
And you think in your mind, are you ready to die?
How can I go on, and I'll live a long life you know
If I could outrun the whole damn state
And I think of the time that I didn't have to run
And then I thought it, I may never see the sun
In the morning all I got left is my gun
And I will use it to get myself out of this mess
And I thought if I'd ever taken more or less
Then I'd abuse it and all I'd have left is my stress
And you run for your life,
And you hide from the lights as they shine from the sky.
When your life's on the line,
And you think in your mind, are you ready to die?
