Lyrics

13 in the thick of a cornfield, i learned to fight, keep rows tight, and not chew, never did change, stayed strange, hopped a train, my first chance i got out of smallville, life has it's way of movin' you on, don't it?, my first stop was a pawn shop, dropped a pretty penny for a cheap fender with a song in it, i had a quick right hand, an old van, i thought good friends would make a good band, life has it's way of provin' you wrong, don't it?, i've been right and i've been wrong, somewhere in between for so long, live the night, miss the light, and i've been shown it, life has it's way of keepin' you strong, don't it?, so there i was, a long way from nowhere, fried mind, spare time, and a blank stare, i was just numb enough not to feel a thing, after all we didn't share a set of rings, besides, how bad could it be?, she'd never find out, i'd never come clean, life has it's way of leadin' you on, don't it?, i've been right and i've been wrong, somewhere in between for so long, live the night, miss the light, and i've been shown it, life has it's way of keepin' you strong, don't it?, well now, have you ever been down the old back road?, on time borrowed, it's a trip, it's a bitch, it's an on and off light switch, nobody follows, everybody's got their own past, skeletons to stash, don't look back if you do laugh, life has it's way of movin' you on, don't it?
