I know I took the path that you would never want for me
I know I let you down, didn't I?
So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me
Well, I'm just a slave unto the night

Am I out of touch? Am I out of my place?
When I keep saying that I'm looking for an empty space
Oh, I'm wishing you're here
But I'm wishing you're gone
I can't have you and I'm only gonna do you wrong

I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

No matter whay we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

I'm sorry for everything, oh everything I've done
From the second that I was born
It seems I had a loaded gun
And then I shot, shot, shot a hole through everything I loved
Oh, I shot, shot, shot a hoke through every single thing that I loved

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger
But then, I'II admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now, don't you understand?
That I'm never changing who I am

I'm sorry, mother
I'm sorry, I let you down
Well, these days I'm fine
No these days I tend to lie
I'll take the Western train, just by the side of Amsterdam
Just by my left brain, just by the side of the Tin Man

When you've made it
Won't ya tell me what to do
'Cause I'm playing' it all wrong
When you made it, when you made it
Won't ya tell me what to do
'Cause I'm playing' it all wrong

Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man

So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend

Shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
Been a long time coming
For the working man

So shake it, shake it
And we’re moving again
When the money is high
We can start to spend

I would always open up the door
Always looking up at higher floors
Want to see it all give me more (rise, rise up)
I was always up for the making changes
Walking down the street and meeting strangers
Flipping through my life turning pages (rise, rise up)

Oh, I'll take your hand when thunder roars
And I hold you close, I'll stay the course
I promise you from up above
That we'll take what comes, take what comes, love

There’s nothing left to say now
There’s nothing left to say now
I’m giving up, giving up, giving up now
I’m giving up, giving up, giving up now

Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder
Thunder, feel the thunder
Lightning and the thunder, thunder

We're walking the wire
We're walking the wire
We're walking the wire, wire, wire
