CAPO I (Though he s played live on III, might be easier to sing to that way)
There was a time I could not cry
But that has left me now
For 7 years I could not dream
But now that s done
There were songs I could not sing
Words I could not know
Oh but now they found me on a bridge
And they broke my heart
There was a way I used to talk
I cannot recognize
And now my language cannot give me
what I need
And I tore it from my bible and I kept it from my god
I would not lose to junkies on the street
It hit me so hard
I could not see
That shot was only meant for me
And all the faces that I knew
They were lying
When the hard road went back to sand
And with the wheel still in my hand
()
I built a highway out of dust
And I was flying
There was a way I used to talk
I cannot recognize
And now my language cannot give me
what I need
And I tore it from my bible and I kept it from my god
I would not lose to junkies on the street
It hit me so hard
I could not see
That shot was only meant for me
And all the faces that I knew
They were lying
When the hard road went back to sand
And with the wheel still in my hand
( if you prefer)
I built a highway out of dust
And I was flying
