end of the line

and now the gravity of trouble was more than i could bear,
at times my luck was so bad, i had to fold my hands,
almost lost my soul, rarely i could find my head,
wake up early in the morning, feeling nearly dead.

i was never afraid of danger, took trouble on the chin,
mountains i have climbed, that have killed a thousand men,
spent most of my lifetime downtown, sleepin´ behind the wheel,
never needed anybody, i was king of the hill.

[chorus:]
oh, when i think about the old days,
lord, it sends chills up and down my spine,
yeah life ain´t what it seems, on the boulevard of broken dreams,
guess i opened my eyes in the nick of time,
´cause it sure felt like the end of the line.

no matter how hard i run, i just can´t get away
i try to do my best, but the devil gets in my way
spent most of my lifetime downtown, sleepin´ behind the wheel
´till it all came down to kill or be killed

[chorus]
