The Finish Line

My name is Inmate number 30 268 and I
Decided not to stay.
I doubt they’ll kick up any fuss or old roadblock
for an old crook like me.
I was in the path of the tornado
I just didn’t expect the spinning
would last as long as it has, you know,
So I keep repeating.
I just keep repeating.
There’s always hope that no good thing ever dies.
The river is carrying each one of us to the
finish line.
One day we’ll be on the other side
These are not the chosen things.
These are the things that have chosen me.
And I’m riding for my life; it’s a terrible thing
to be afraid all the time.
When you reach the point of a death wish,
feeling that anything
has got to be better than this then just
keep repeating
Just go on repeating.
There’s always hope,
that no good thing ever dies.
The river is carrying each one of us
to the finish line.
One day we’ll be on the other side
Ahhh
One day we’ll be on the other side
End
