But I Did Not - Live

Was I wakin' where the wrong side renders?
(But I did not)
Was I slouchin' toward demise?
(But I did not)
Forgettin' about all the innocent splendors?
(But I did not)
Allowin' rage to gunk up my eyes?
(But I did not)

Was I slippin' into deception?
(But I did not)
Was I makin' it make more sense?
(But I did not)
Acceptin' the deviled invitation?
(But I did not)
Should I just remain here upon the fence?

(No) no (no) (no), I won't let go
Within in the Herald I hear harkin'
'Gainst the bone-yard hounds are barkin'
Go woo-hoo (woo-ooh)

I almost went to bed hating it
(But I did not)
I almost just made it inside
(But I did not)
So tormented by stating it
(But I did not)
Situation so self-obsessed
(But I did not)

I felt like burnin' down the home
(But I did not)
I felt like buyin' me a gun
(But I did not)
I felt like takin' it all on my own
(But I did not)
I felt like takin' it upon me on the run

No (no) (no-o-ho), I won't let go
Within the Herald I hear a-harkin'
And at the bone-yard hounds are barkin'
(Woo-woo-woo-woo) (woo-woo) (woo-woo-woo)
Barkin'

Smilin' at the sun shinin'
(But I did not)
Every dark cloud's silver linin'
(But I did not)
Happy hearing the children, they're a-chirpin'
(But I did not)
Sometimes sacrifice is just timin'
(But I did not)

So much you can't stand it
(But I did not)
Lookin' for the love that hides within it
(But I did not)
Sometimes it feels like this life lasts just a minute
(But I did not)
Until I finally found you in it

No (no) (no-o-ho, ho-ho-woo-oh), won't let go
Within the hauntin' howls a houndin'
I give it all a god-almighty poundin'
Within the Herald I hear a-harkin'
Against the bone-yard hounds are barkin'

Pew!
