lyrics

I have seen the sun of love blur right before my eyes
Cyrillic signs and liquor kisses broke our sacred ties
Sizzling grease and frozen mojo in between two lives
Rolling west through mud and concrete, forming truth from lies

Sit and wait in empty rooms, filled with silent sounds
Frown upon the missing time that everybody owns
Waste my time on dark red digits, waste my life on gold
To kiss the queen of pain goodbye when destinies are sold

And here I stand
Barefoot in the snow
Where my best friend taught me
How to punch in an eye

Yeah here I stand
Barefoot in the snow
Where chaos taught me
How to–

A wise man once said, tears of pain and pleasure taste the same
But babe, your fist hurt more and more until I quit this game
I fought you off and fled the scene ‘fore I could hit the ground
Sweetness missing in my head, my heart and all around

And here I stand
Barefoot on the road
Where my best friend taught me
How to end this life

Yeah here I stand
Barefoot on the road
Where chaos taught me
How to end this life

I have seen the night of love turn into brightest day
The sun arose and cast her rays onto my winding way
I have learned to run barefoot without burning my feet
And now I hope this winding road won’t lead me back to thee
