lyrics

Old man, who's the damned that you're going after
Old maid, no one to blame for your broken laughter
You stack the deck and you cut up the cards
Taking more than your share leave me fighting the odds
Gonna be a long time till we count up the cost, you know

You wouldn't quit you couldn't if you even tried
Another light goes out, another engine dies
I'm gonna figure out a way around your wall
It won’t be easy but I know just what we're fighting for

So would you give me a break and don't put up a show
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've had enough of your lip I can't take it no more
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've been locked out and dragged down, kicked to the floor
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I’ve paid all of my dues now let's settle the score
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go

Eyes like laughter glazing overdone the party damage
No one can believe your smiling battered in a choke hold
Mother Mary may I introduce a new opinion to ya
You're a no show

You wouldn't quit you couldn't if you even tried
Another light goes out, another engine dies
I'm gonna figure out a way around your wall
It won’t be easy but I know just what we're fighting for

So would you give me a break and don't put up a show
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've had enough of your lip I can't take it no more
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've been locked out and dragged down, kicked to the floor
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I’ve paid all of my dues now let's settle the score
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go

You wouldn't quit you couldn't if you even tried
Another light burns out, another engine dies
I'm gonna figure out a way around your wall
It won’t be easy but I know just what we're fighting for

So would you give me a break and don't put up a show
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've had enough of your lip I can't take it no more
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I've been locked out and dragged down, kicked to the floor
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
I’ve paid all of my dues now let's settle the score
There's a new world waiting and I'm ready to go
