Matthew Shadley Band

Lyrics

Slowly drag me down with a golden ball and chain
The melodrama leads me into wandering again
I don't want to stay
But I'm afraid to go

It's a long ride down a lonesome road
Something taken when there's nothing owed
I'm moving fast cause there's nothing left to see

It seems to me I’ve lived my life in vain
Mired among the ancient and arcane
I don't want to stay
But I'm afraid to go

It's a long ride down a lonesome road
Something taken when there's nothing owed
I'm moving fast cause there's nothing left to see

Someday soon and it won't be wrong
You'll get wiser and you'll move along
I did my best to give you what you need

I don't want to stay
And I'm afraid to go

It's a long ride down a lonesome road
Something taken when there's nothing owed
I'm moving fast cause there's nothing left to see
