Be On Your Way Lyrics - And The Horse They Rode In On - Soul Asylum

Just like an old man in a candy store, the riots across the street 

The cold greets the newborn, the neighbors that never meet 

No one's making plans here, no one knows for sure 

The way to keep it inside, it's just one more dark opening for you 

And whatever you do when everything still seems new 

It's sure to come to something to change the rest of your life 

For a chance to feel normal but now you're in too deep 

Pacing circles around your eyes, the rest of the world's fast asleep 

No sense of direction, no sense at all 

No one there to break your fall, no one knows what's happening to you 

I never quite got that through and no one waits for you 

And no one calls for something to do with the rest of your life 

Stop looking over my shoulder, it was a little bolder 

You're going somewhere, I might be on your way 

This time I don't mean maybe, nowhere I'd rather be 

If you're coming with me, I might be on your way 

I saw you there on the corner with my name written all over you 

I was trying to get your attention, it's all I ever wanted from you 

Who will be the victim, who will be the host? Who will you take it out on 

For not being there when you needed them most for you? 

I'm coming to terms with you and you can pull me through 

I'm settling up with something to change the rest of my life 

Something to do with the rest of my life 

I need something to feel, the rest of my life's not in vain
