Dyin' Day

Feel like I'm riding
And everything's fading fast
Ain't no one around me
To tell me that it just won't last
This time I'll close my eyes
And tell myself everything is really alright

I'm just a nail on the cross
I don't mean what I do
But I feel like I'm drowning
Man, I just can't seem to get back on my feet
On my corner is a mourner
And he's eulogizing my defeat

And the heats on, damn the inferno fire
Steaming on my window pane
Washing me in these beads of sweat
And all I ever wanted was some cleansing rain

Feel like I'm dying
Least it gives me something to do
So just one sad song for me
Lord, you know I done that for you

My life, my loves
Send them all away
Just tell me where to go
I'll lay me down this dying day

So sing that sad song for me
Lord, you know I done that much for you

My life, my loves
Send them all away
Just tell me where to go
I'll lay me down this dying day
