shaun murphy - bill payne
she had a drive-by childhood
a plastic jesus on her chest
a mean mean girl
with a certain snake allure
a heart like 16 midnights
and a surgical voice
keepinÔÇÖ strange for some change
empty eyes with a haunted look
leaninÔÇÖ hard, she lost her place
try as she might
she couldnÔÇÖt take my advice
itÔÇÖs a desperate conclusion
people with a grudge
and a mind you can not budge
ainÔÇÖt no bed of roses
tryinÔÇÖ to turn your life around
ainÔÇÖt no bed of roses
time wonÔÇÖt move no mountain
just the faith in the leap, my friend
a cliff dwellinÔÇÖ creeper
and a runaway
on the olÔÇÖ cat slide of town
see how you run, oh see how you pay
another honest mistake
if dreams are all you need
then alone is where youÔÇÖll be
iÔÇÖm the leader of the middle
and i see that streak in you
was it somethinÔÇÖ you were born with
or did it just seep on through?
itÔÇÖs a nightmare on a budget
just enough to keep you off track
always somethinÔÇÖ for nothinÔÇÖ
on the road, to hell and back
ainÔÇÖt no bed of roses
tryinÔÇÖ to turn your life around
ainÔÇÖt no bed of roses
(time) wonÔÇÖt move no mountain
just the faith in the leap, my friend
iÔÇÖm the leader of the middle
