"It's a long road ... When you're on your own
And it hurts when they tear your dreams apart
And every new town just seems to bring you down
Trying to find peace of mind can break your heart
*It's a real war right outside your front door, I tell you
Out where they'll kill you
You could use a friend
Where the road ends that's the place for me
Where I'm in my own space where I'm free
That's the place I wanna be
**Cause the road is long, yeah
Each step is only the beginning
No place, just heartaches
Oh man, is anybody winning?
It's a long road, and it's hard as hell
Tell me what do you do to survive
When they drop first blood
That's just the start of it
Day and night, you got to fight to keep alive (*)(**)
