Trial By Fire

Gonna move out on the highway, make this moment last
 Till it closes with the future, even out the past
 Rollin' on and doin' fine, now what do you think I see?
 That boney hand comes a beckonin', buddy come and go with me
 That engine just ain't strong enough
 To get you 'round the turn
 Lie on your back in the middle of a field
 And watch your body burn
 Hey, don't try to tell me just who I am
 When you don't know yourself
 Spend half your time running out on the street
 With your mind home on the shelf
 Lookin' at me with your eyes full of fire
 Like you'd rather be seein' me dead
 Lying on the floor with a hole in my face
 And a ten gauge shotgun at my head
 You can leave me here, but I won't tell
 Things I know about you and know so well
 The way you smile at me, try to set me free
 And keep me wondering what the future will be
 Rollin' on won't be long
 I won't leave here till I sing this song
 And don't try to tell me just who I am
 When you don't know yourself
 Spend half your time running out on the street
 With your mind home on the shelf
 Lookin' at me with your eyes full of fire
 Like you'd rather be seein' me dead
 Lying on the floor with a hole in my face
 And a ten gauge shotgun at my head
