Lyrics

the long neon nights
have lost that bright glow
the days roll by fast now
and im getting up slow
tomorrows not promised
Such a short runway to go
Im no longer drawing the crowds
but i played one hell of a show

the things that ive done
i cant believe i survived
the candle burned at both ends
yet I’m still barely alive
if i could do one thing better
i think you should know
i would give you whats left of me
and i would never let go

wild fires burn out
when they run out of air
the runaway train jumps the track
in need of repair
a stallion cant run
when those legs wear and tear
but an old broken fool
can still show you he cares

wild fires burn out
when they run out of air
the runaway train jumps the track
in need of repair
a stallion cant run
when those legs wear and tear
but an old broken fool
can still show you he cares
