Now and Then
I'm gonna dig my own coal mine
I'm gonna face the music
Choose between the forces
That I want to live
An idle mind's the devil's playground
I walk a much straighter line
Or trick myself into believing it
Up the road of rock and hill
Strechin' out yonder
I might as well resign myself
To start now
A broken wheel I'm no good
Well how strange it is
With nine fingers to the count
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday was offering
(Gonna) get my share of what's fair
Climb the ladder up the stairs
Plead innocent or finally do the crime
Gonna be first, at least not last
Put my nose to the grind
Excuse me now,
if you think I move too fast
Can't complain, time to take aim
Stake my claim or pull out,
If I've got to pay up
I'll bring some cash now
The best intentions of good faith
or good will
The etiquette, the whole crap
You know I can live without
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday was offering
I think that I've seen the end of those days
Head bowed down
With the cross on my back
I've entered into a whole other phase
That's got a brand new plan of attack
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yester -
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday
Was offering
I'm gonna face the music
Choose between the forces
That I want to live
An idle mind's the devil's playground
I walk a much straighter line
Or trick myself into believing it
Up the road of rock and hill
Strechin' out yonder
I might as well resign myself
To start now
A broken wheel I'm no good
Well how strange it is
With nine fingers to the count
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday was offering
(Gonna) get my share of what's fair
Climb the ladder up the stairs
Plead innocent or finally do the crime
Gonna be first, at least not last
Put my nose to the grind
Excuse me now,
if you think I move too fast
Can't complain, time to take aim
Stake my claim or pull out,
If I've got to pay up
I'll bring some cash now
The best intentions of good faith
or good will
The etiquette, the whole crap
You know I can live without
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday was offering
I think that I've seen the end of those days
Head bowed down
With the cross on my back
I've entered into a whole other phase
That's got a brand new plan of attack
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yester -
Every now and then I wake up
Stronger than before
Closer towards a door that's opening
Through the never ending breakup
Knowing there is more
More than yesterday
Was offering
