I have stood my ground when I should have turned and run
I watched my dreams melt away like ice cubes in the sun
I fell in love with ladies that don't know I even exist
Prayed to my savior and held a razor to my wrist
ย
I found myself in trouble and I lost myself in vain
Busted in these honky tonks and broke down in the rain
I heard the sirens of confusion in the canyons of my mind
Sentenced to eternity, accused of killing time
Lord, I guess I lasted longer than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid and so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert with a canteen full of dreams
ย
I spent my mind on music, lost my soul inside a song
Seems like people like me got nowhere to belong
Others seem to know where they're bound and where they've been
But I felt like I was always on the outside looking in
Lord, I guess I lasted longer than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid and so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert with a canteen full of dreams
ย
Lord, I guess I lasted longer than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid and so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert with a canteen full of dreams
