lyrics

They say life is a journey not a destination
But I’m destined to journey all over creation
Like the old man would tell us drove us out of our mind
You will know what I’m looking for whenever I find it

And I understand now what I couldn’t back then
That life is a game that none of us will win
And the echoes of laughter will fade on the wind
And I hope you’ll find comfort in the box you’ll be in

But I’m already too far gone
Like some old western hero riding into the sun
Made a deal with the devil signed it without a care
Guess I’ll know where I’m going whenever I get there

In a hotel two stops past the last chance saloon
Where the call girls are royalty ravaged and doomed
And the rats make great pets and the danger’s assumed
And the lights are all red but everyone looks so blue
That’s where you’ll find me alone in my room

With my pen and my guitar, my pills and my gloom
Wrote your name on the wall to the left of the shelf
I’m so glad you introduced me to myself

But I’m already too far gone
Like some old western hero riding into the sun
Made a deal with the devil signed it without a care
Guess I’ll know where I’m going whenever I get there

-Repeat-
