Land Of Extremes
Land of Extremes
Words & Music by David Bray
Na Na no
Ah na no
I was born in a land of extremes
Hot and cold and not a lot in between
I was an angry young man, now I'm angry and old
When I look at where the fire went makes my blood run cold.
I've been working
Killing myself to survive
That day to day drain
Leaves you a little less alive
I've been working
Killing myself, now I find
When I look in the mirror all I see
Is what I left behind
I was born in a land of extremes
Have and have not and not a lot in between
I may make a living, but I'll never have it made
This life cost me more than I ever got paid.
I've been working
Killing myself to survive
That day to day drain
Leaves you a little less alive
I've been working
Killing myself, now I find
When I look in the mirror all I see
Is what I left behind
Fall frost and winter freeze
Aching to get warm
I never got my place in the sun
I'll settle for shelter from the storm
How far do you have to go
To get past where you come from
You're never sure what to do
Then one day they say you're done.
I've been working
Killing myself to survive
That day to day drain
Leaves you a little less alive
I've been working
Killing myself, now I find
When I look in the mirror all I see
Is what I left behind
You see...
I've been working
Killing myself to survive
That day to day drain
Leaves you a little less alive
I've been working
Killing myself, now I find
When I look in the mirror all I see
Is what I left behind
