My Way
My pride is just a blank white page
I have nothing but unacquainted rage
No one knows how much I have inside
If you think you know me, I probley lied
A kind face will win your delicate smile
A considerate gesture will get us by another mile
This road is one I have traveled for so damn long
There is nowhere to stop because there is nowhere I belong
I have seen beautiful people and places
Wide mountains and forgettable faces
Alone I travel with nothing to gain or lose
I long to rest, to stop and sigh, but my heart will always refuse
So another mile will pass and so will your love
When I wake up alone, only dry eyes will I rub
My sorrow can not slow this train down
It just moves me faster from town to town
Another lost love is another crack on my heart
My body will keep moving until I fall apart
Another day is just another game to play
It does not matter if I win or lose
When I die, I’ll know I did it my way
