Sittin back and wandering
thru my daydreams
into the night and beyond
I've a lot to be thankful
it's my fortune
but I've still got my chains
dragging along
(chorus)
I've got no illusions
about the reasons why
the past of delusions
clouded all my skies
(verse)
and the fallout from the poison
claws from the past
intelligence has no reason
my cruelty at last
Born to run like a greyhound
and die like a snail
we trade our freedoms
for a guide on our trail
(chorus)
And in that pool of reflection
in the quiet of the night
the sting of conclusions
I can't pay back that price
We're raised as a team
but in the end we're alone
to follow great dreams
these too end up gone
(chorus)
And I know it in my heart
there's no reasons, no excuse
the streets of the past
this baggage has no use.
