I was living on the edge of a knife
I was my biggest threat to my life
I can't believe it when I look back now
Always seemed to make it through somehow
Some money in my pocket and leaving on my mind
I've tried to leave those skeletons behind
Those rattling bones wake me in the night
Got to find a way to put things right

Driving all nigh but I'm not there
Sign on the road says I'm going nowhere
I ask myself what have you got to lose
2 Fists full of nothing-which one do you choose

If I keep on driving till the darkness fades
Will it take some of this guilt away
A new day's rising and nothings changed
On the highway of life in the breakdown lane
I feel it inside just like a burning flame
The eyes in the mirror show nothing but pain
How long can one mans bad luck last
And can you really out run your past

I feel it inside just like a burning flame
The eyes in the mirror show nothing but pain
How long can one mans bad luck last
And can you really out run your past

Driving all nigh but I'm not there
Sign on the road says I'm going nowhere
I ask myself what have you got to lose
2 Fists full of nothing-which one do you choose
