This Is Your Life - Live From The Royal Albert Hall / 2009

"This Is Your Life"

Candy talks to strangers, thinks her life's in danger
No one gives a damn about her hair
It's lonely down on Track Street, she used to go by Jackie
The cops, they'll steal your dreams, and they'll kill your prayers
Take a number where the blood just barely dried

Wait for something better
No one behind you, watching your shadows
This feeling won't go

Crooked wheels keep turning
Children, are you learning?
Acclimatized, but don't you lose the plot
A history of blisters, your brothers and your sisters
Somewhere in the pages we forgot

Take a number Jackie
Where the blood just barely dried
You know I'm on your side

Wait for something better
No one behind you, watching your shadows
You got to be stronger than the story
Don't let it blind you, rivers are shallow
This feeling won't go

And the sky is full of dreams
But you don't know how to fly
I don't have a simple answer
But I know that I could answer
Something better

This feeling won't go
Wait for it, wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Oh, ah-ah
