lyrics

Taken from my birthplace, and home of all I love.
Thrust into the middle of nowhere, near enough.
Never taught to fend for myself when the going gets tough.
I'm a writer not a fighter, pa, these people play too rough.

Brought up on a wire, but never treated mean.
Taught right and wrong, fed, fit and strong, my conscience squeaky clean.
But I was never in the right crowd and never picked first for the team.
I'm a city boy deep down, pa, on this country life I ain't so keen.

Saved from hopeless solitude, boredom, insanity and such.
Only a man with arms that big, could ever have that touch.
What with all the things I owe you, Matt, how could I put you through so much.
I love you like no other, man, won't you come back from the verge.

Whisked from one place to another, lost my friends my life my Brother.
Every place I said don't go was all we did and what do you know?
I'm not the one abandoned this time.
i thought I told you anyway, pa, It's at that I draw the line.

Bled dry by the Devil, her accomplice by her side.
My best I did to fight them off, in spite of how I tried.
You can't win a game all by yourself i asked the devil and she cried.
Don't cry for what you're owed when you know damn well it's already died.
