Lyrics

Take me back to younger years when I knew how to fight the pain
These tired eyes and timeless mind and drugs don't work the same
If I'd kept my promises, I may have made the grade
Swallowed all them pills and doctor's bills, but my pride denied the blame
My counselor said I'll end up dead, go ahead and make my day
I guess that's what I'm shootin' for when I'm searchin' for a vein
Cocaine eyes tell silent lies, I needle little more
If the wind brings darker skies, I'll let this spoon decide the score
The desert holds the hottest days, and coldest of the nights
A daring man treads barren lands and stands starin' at his plights
Never once did widened eyes see fear not reflect
The vibrant, justified insides of a man it must protect
And why must we all protect
Cocaine eyes tell silent lies, I needle little more
If the wind brings darker skies, I'll let this spoon decide the score
I'll let this spoon decide the score
I'll let this moon decide the score
I'll let this moon decide the score
Take me back to younger years when I knew how to fight the pain
These tired eyes and timeless mind and drugs don't work the same
