Can't Stop

(album: Chains Are Broken - 2018)

Gun inside my mouth this morning
Laid in my vein when I was young
I have felt the love of thousands
All I wanted now was the love of one
I grew up out on the highway
Listening to that desert wind
Made some deals with the deceiver
I won't lie to you, I knew that it was him

He said, I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done, yeah
I know why you do what you were doing
Why you can't stop for anyone

Anyone, ooh...
Anyone, ooh...

Did they tell you you were crazy
Did they lock you in a cage
Take your mind and your body
Just trying to make you behave
Did they push you to the edge now
Kneeling right into the grave
Make you lie down right next to death
Just to show her you ain't afraid

And she said I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done
I know why you do what you were doing
Why you can't stop for anyone

Anyone, ooh...
Anyone, ooh...

Even in your suit of armor
See the tears filling your eyes
Nothing to do but to say what's in your heart
Before you fall like a bird out of the sky

I know why you do what you were doing
I know why you did what you have done
I know why you do what you were doing
And why you can't stop for anyone

Anyone, ooh...
Anyone, ooh...
Anyone, ooh...
Anyone, ooh...
