Sweet Wednesday - My Life Is Not My Own lyrics

Been beat down, gone underground And my life it is not my own I ran away into the fray Still my life it is not my own You can get on your knees and pray You can wait until the judgment day You may find yourself in need of attention And the one thing you hold true Is that it all comes down to you But still my life it is not my own Been born again, and I've lost a friend And I can't find my way home Got a wife somewhere and children there Still my life it is not my own Oh mercy mercy me, I pray onto the stars and sea That someday soon I may walk beside them But until that blessed day, all that I can do is pray Because my life it is not my own You can get lost inside this city Where it always looks like rain There ain't nothing you can do There ain't nothing you can say Because you just can't stop the rain Ain't seen the sky since '45 And my life it is not my own Heard Jesus saves, and I've seen early graves And stil my life it is not my own You may find yourself confused and then quietly amused You may find yourself with nothing left to trust n With this tremor in my brain, and this hurt inside my veins Because my life it is not my own
