Life’s a Pill

This wall I have hit
I'm losing track of where the fun begins
'Cause I'm twelve states straight from where you now decay
And a red eye won't change the way the angels sing
I send my grace
Not the time or the place
And my conscience starts to scream

How could a father love a son on the run?
Always wasting precious minutes
Dedicated and indebted to you
I pray I'll be back soon

Turning to the life we lead
Like a bullet that deals no pain
And I don't wanna talk 'cause I'll start breaking down
And the words will make it real then I'm living this hell
Turn and burn and carry on
And it feels like nothing's changed
Put it on ice for now and we'll just drive
And look the other way

Yeah, we're losing it all and I can't feel a thing
Watch the highway lights directing every scene
And I wanna walk away
I hear my conscience start to beg

How could a mother love a son on the run?
Always wasting precious minutes
Dedicated and indebted to you
But I'll be back soon

Turning to the life we lead
Like a bullet that deals no pain
And I don't wanna talk 'cause I'll start breaking down
And the words will make it real then I'm living this hell
Turn and burn and carry on
And it feels like nothing's changed
Put it on ice for now and we'll just drive
And look the other way

Cast me a lifeline
You're drifting off, buried by the rain
Mouthing feel no pain
Cast me a lifeline
And pick a time or place
I can see your face again

And in this life that deals no pain
We can learn to walk away

Turn and burn and walk away
Wish that things would stay the same
