Lyrics:

You know that bad luck will eat you up Whens it gonna end? I twisted everything I could Out of words In real life my colours never blend When I was a boy I said to myself That Id never lean on anyone else Oh, but I was wrong Yeah I was wrong And my mother took me by the hands and then Oh, oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that Im in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lightning rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that Im in In this mess of a life that Im in Come on you got a lot to give A lot to live for And hope it all gets better You twisted everything you can out of anything I know its gonna get better And Im so sick and tired of lying around Were all waiting for someone to light up this town Oh, it wont be long It wont be long And I know I should have left town but I stayed Oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that Im in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lightning rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that Im in In this mess of a life that Im in Oh and it feels like Im writing a book and I cant get inspired Sometimes It seems that Im breathing in smoke and my lungs are so tired Oh well Ill just sleep it all off and then hope that it dont get me fired And Im asking you please Oh oh how I prayed That the good Lord would come and take me away From this mess of a life that Im in And I fell to my knees oh and I cried As the lightning rose up from the earth to the sky In this wreck of a life that Im in And oh how I prayed Tha
