Yesterday's Song
Yesterday I woke just like any other day
All the songs, that I need to play
My music had, all slipped away
Troubles come, he rode over me just for fun
Seemed to me that I should have run
So I'm not the smartest one
Far from me, is where my words must want to be
Away from home, they wander free
Now I call them back to me, no reply
It seems to me they don't even try
Looks like they've gone without goodbye
As if they want to make me cry, and they do
Though it's not their fault, I know it's true
They're just doing what it is they do
Here is my heart it breaks for you, have your way
To God above I now must pray
Stay my words, don't let them stray
Oh please don't let it end this way, but it will
I see my future life, race downhill
Believe it's meant to test my will
In prison now there is no thrill
Yesterday, started just like any other day
