Long Road

I've got the key to the city
But it won't let me in
I've got dreams of infinity
Though they are wearing thin

All I've got inside doesn't take me anywhere
I've gotta be and wanna see myself
It's incredibly desensitizing, agonizing, patronizing

I've got a heart filled with golden dreams
A diamond soul set in an 18 carat ring
A champagne flavor on the mind
But the blood's still a shitty wine
(Oh oh woah oh)

Ruby red lips make for a dismal abyss
I'll sing my pains away while
The whole world may dissipate
Who knows maybe I'll make it

Maybe I can make it
Make it
Maybe I can make it
(Oh oh oh woah oh)
Maybe I can
Maybe I can make it down
This long and winding road

Smooth and gentile hands
Lead others in the right direction
I do it once again
And see myself getting nowhere

I kick and scream as I fake all my adoration
I beg and plead as if I've any consolation
The work I do and the lives I have changed
They bring me joy but still cannot replace

I've got a heart filled with golden dreams
A diamond soul set in an 18 carat ring
A champagne flavor on the mind
But the blood's still a shitty wine
(Oh oh woah oh)

Ruby red lips make way for a dismal abyss
I'll sing my pains away while
The whole world may dissipate
Who knows maybe I'll make it
I'll make it

Maybe I can make it
Make it
I'll make it
I'll make it
Maybe I can make it
Baby I'll make it
Down this long and winding road
