I'm Standing in the Light

歌詞

Well, I set fire to an apple tree And I put it back out like a bad memory Yeah, I washed my hands in the flood Well, I took a sip of the trouble I've stirred And I spit it back out like a four letter word Yeah I lost my head in the fight Well, I sat up high on the walls we built And I felt just like a fool on stilts But I just can't get down Olives and a pair of eyes Are floating in my glass And nothing ever seemed so strange But this I know will pass I've seen as far as the eye can see And I blew my mind in the lottery Yeah, I lost my chance Well, I've been told about the fiery skies And I've told my fair share of lies But I believe in mine Well, I've known folks as smart as dogs And I've known folks like bumps on logs And they're all fine by me Blue skies and my share of love Are somewhere in the past And nothing worth anything Is strong enough to last Well, I've done my time for the ills I've caused And I've paid my dues in the best I've lost And I've got room enough to die
