Lost my way in a haze of whiskey water
Found myself between these strings and these bottles
Tried to scream but sound ain't the problem
All I paid: a few years and my last crumpled dollar

There's a life and it's all mine baby
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
There's a life all mine for the taking

Hard to see when your head weighs so heavy
Learn to view the sun from a hole
I've been up and I've been down
Kissing the floor, facing the crowd
Gravel and thorns, shovel and ground
Can't stop the world
I've been up and I've been down
Kissing the floor, facing the crowd
Gravel and thorns, shovel and ground
Can't stop the world

There's a life and it's all mine baby
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
There's a life all mine for the taking

Have to ride out the storm
Hanging on by the horns
Have to ride out the storm
Hanging on by the horns

There's a life and it's all mine baby
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
There's a life all mine for the taking
