You act as if you need no one
      What a lonely life to live always on the run
         Jumping from city to city, town to town
  Saying in your heart Lord I wish I could settle down
    You're just a shadow of the person you use to be 
    Asking yourself whats left is there a place for me 
      Saying I want a home, someone to love me
      Am I that far gone that no one can help me
         Yet I feel I have to put up a tough skin
    I'm so tired of running, Lord when will this end
      I live my life bullet proof cause I'm scared
           I can't let my heart get blown away
                 that would mean the end
     I've been through so many ups and downs
 Haven't had that many ups just a whole lot of downs
      Yet I want to walk with my head held high
         Lord I'm so scared of saying good-bye

          If you ask me if my life means anything
                I'll tell you it means everything
         Yet I ask you whose looking out for me
                        who has my back
  I want it the way it use to be, I want my life back
                I'm so tired of being on the run
  Just once Lord I want to take some time out have fun
 Yet I just keep wondering is it over for me is the next
                                 bullet the one
