The Ride Out
I'm estranged by circumstancesBeyond my controlSpent my life, oh so futileUpon my father's roadOverheard him talk to strangersHe needs someone to blameHe's trying to hide, he's telling liesBut can't communicateI been trying, trying much too hardI don't hold the ace of spades'Cause I don't play cardsI'm seeking to extend my freedomOutside of my mindDrifting on, and vaguely searchingFor hope in the Northern LightsOh this house can get you downYou don't see too many smiles aboutSomething's gone wrongI was hoping to find peace at homeBut instead I find I'm on my ownI'm getting' out, I'm on the ride outWe need hope and motivationTo justify the rolesYou and me, we've long been playingUpon this stage alone Aus Songtexte Mania
