lyrics

It's hard out here for the honest folk I see
Harder still for a boy like me
Been one step ahead since I was seventeen
Some of you know what I mean
I can’t blame no broken home
Two saints gave thanks on the day that I was born
But loving words can be so very hard to hear
When the devil's whispering in your ear
And the temple I built to myself
Is pulled down around my head
The hell-hounds on my trail
Drink from dry river beds
But I stay one step ahead
I fell on my knees
I was begging please
Don't let me know all the good I'm gonna miss
When the cold hands close around my wrist
And the temple I built to myself
Is pulled down around my head
The hell-hounds on my trail
Drink from dry river beds
But I stay one step ahead
