On the ropes, on the run, I doubt things are bound to change Better days pass away, I might just be out of range I was always too young or too old for you I was always too dumb or too bold for truth Cleaner slate, give me grace, whatever the hell I'll need Justified, sanctified, God I hope I still believe I was always too young or too old for you Damned or saved, it doesn't change a thing I've done for you For you Sit me down, tied and bound, burn me up from the inside Make me stand, if you can, God I wish that I had died I could never be bold and outgrow my youth I was either untrained or too sane for you For you I walk away with shame No one left to blame The burden of my guilt With nothing left to kill For you
