Roine Stolt - Out Cast lyrics

They say this world is coming to an end They say that Jesus is your only friend They say that from your sin you must be saved They say there ain't no ace in all the cards you played You're at the end and in the seaman's log There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog There ain't no pretty maid that waits for me There is no safe retreat as far as I can see There are no friends amongst the ones I lived There's only strangers with notorious urges to k** If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will We've paid a fortune for a first cla** seat in hell I don't believe there is an end of what is ME There's no beginning to my being as I see it There's just this solitude and this now But I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!! They say this island is no place for me to hide That gra** is greener on some other distant side They say the sky is crying for a lost and lonely soul A simple thief crawls back into his dirty hole You're at the end and in the seaman's log There ain't no land in sight for this old salty dog A millions eyes out in the starless night They've got some common ground, some call it hate All sleep I get is with one eye open wide The kings and priests they want my head upon a plate If storms won't get me, I have enemies that will We've paid a fortune for a first cla** seat in hell I don't believe there is an end of what is ME There's no beginning to my being as I see it There's just my salty story and this now And I'm still alive and kicking, holy cow!!
