lyrics

Medicine Man

No matter how far I travel on this road
I still seem to lose my way in the dark
I try to wash the dust off my throat
And demons from dark corners of my heart
And every time I get back on the track
I promise myself not to hurt you again
I pray for the Angels to watch my back
I ask for strength to make it to the end

Hey medicine man
Your drugs don't kill the hunger
That burns inside of me
Hey medicine man
Staring truth in the eyes
Still I'm too blind to see

Once again I woke up just before sunrise
I must have got lost on my way home
Don't know where I've been but it must have been a fare fight
Got blood on my knuckles but no broken bones
Try to make sense try to find someone to blame
The truth got lost some where along the way
Begging for forgiveness try to hide my shame
But you've heard it all before got nothing left to say
