Yellow lines, in the dead of the night Oh, I was heading back out West Trying to keep my eyes open wide I'd gone days without any rest Saw a line in the road looking back About twenty yards ahead You come back from a trip to the East But you don't come back from the dead Sure as hell he was dead as they come, And he was already starting to smell Just a kid, with his hair slicked back And a knife tucked into his belt Was he unforgiven Or just tired of living a life that never felt like his? Though I was worn and weary I thought I'd bury him And lay his soul to rest out in the desert night I laid him down, in a grave in the sand And he grabbed my arm with his dead man's hand He said "I know I'm dead But I don't want to lie in a grave out here where the coyotes cry. I stared right into the endless Void, And I ain't going back if I got any choice I know how to live, I don't know how to die, And there ain't no thrills in the afterlife So lift me up out of here, my friend, And I'll wander the night 'til the ages end." Lit by the moon, he walked through the sand, And he waved "goodbye" with his dead man's hand And he will roam, forever, unto the desert And he will roam, forever, unto the desert

A million footsteps, this left foot drags behind my right But I keep walking, from daybreak 'til the falling night And as days turn into weeks and years And years turn into lifetimes Just keep walking, like I've been walking for a thousand years Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow If you're walking to escape, to escape from your affliction You'd be walking in a great circle, in a circle of addiction Did you ever wonder what you'd been carrying since the world was black? You see yourself in a looking glass with a tombstone on your back Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow Walk away in anger, walk away in pain Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain All this wandering has led me to this place Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness I'm just hanging here in space Now I'm suspended between my darkest fears and dearest hope Yes, I've been walking, now I'm hanging from a dead man's rope With Hell below me, and Heaven in the sky above I've been walking, I've been walking away from Jesus' love Walk away in emptiness, walk away in sorrow Walk away from yesterday, walk away tomorrow Walk away in anger, walk away in pain Walk away from life itself, walk into the rain All this wandering has led me to this place Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness I'm just hanging here in space The shadows fall Around my bed When the hand of an angel The hand of an angel is reaching down above my head All this wandering has led me to this place Inside the well of my memory, sweet rain of forgiveness Now I'm walking in his grace I'm walking in his footsteps Walking in his footsteps (walking in his footsteps) Walking in his footsteps (walking in his footsteps) All the days of my life, I will walk with you All the days of my life, I will talk with you All the days of my life, I will share with you All the days of my life, I will bear with you Walk away from anger, walk away from pain Walk away from anguish, walk into the rain

And I knew that you just couldn't wait To put your sharpened dagger in And watch the look on my face It was all you were searching for A picture frame consistent To being alone Now we're content with illusions And our arm length smiles Did you get what you wanted Did you get what you wanted now This is all that I'm asking Cause its the love we're forgetting now Did you take what you wanted Did you get what you wanted from me This is all that I'm asking This is all that I'm asking you Oh the years that have all been erased No superficial shelter could ever replace And its all you we're searching for Another adequate replacement To walk through your door We're content with illusions And our downhill eyes Did you get what you wanted Did you get what you wanted now This is all that I'm asking Cause its the love I'm forgetting now Did you get what you wanted Did you take what you wanted from me This is all that I'm asking Yeah this is all that I'm asking Have you ever felt what it means to be truly alone? Stop and think right now Have you ever been alone? Have you ever felt so cold? Have you ever felt to truly alone? So freezing cold?
