Lyrics

I'm only sober when I'm dreaming
And I'm only stoned when I'm awake
Lately this job's got me feeling
Like my whole life is a mistake
I love the feeling when I'm leaving
But I can't seem to stay away
I'm only happy when I'm bleeding
That's why I choose to live this way

But I'm only in it for the money
I lost my passion long ago
And a few may find this funny
But I'm out there fighting for my soul
I pray this love I've found sustains me
Until I have to let it go
But I'm only in it for the money
And I just thought you all should know

But oh how I've cried
And how I've weeped and sighed
All for a song
Just for a song

Oh how I've cried
How I've weeped and sighed
All for a song
Just for a song

That's why I live or die by pen strokes
Rhythm and chords and melody
And it may seem strange to some folks
But these simple songs have set me free
I pray this love I've found sustains me
But some days I just don't know
And this love I've found might kill me
But I can't seem to let it go
Oh no no no no
This love I've found will kill me
But I don't wanna let it go
