Dark back alleys and lightning glow Hardwood floors and old dirt roads Fire and rain, comin' down Pa**in' wind blowin' town to town Guess I'm livin' like a runaway child Movin' like the songs on the radio dial Goin' here wishin' I was there Tryin' to make a livin' while no one cares Everybody's lookin' for something real or something more And I need something I can't ignore Redemption, redemption There's somebody that I still miss Her name barely leaves my lips She comes to me in my darkest dreams Makes me wish for the sweetest things She loved me like I didn't deserve I could never find the words She got mad on Christmas Day And I was a thousand miles away Everybody's lookin' for something real or something more And I need something I can't ignore Redemption, redemption And all the things you leave behind Left the pain, the faith, the lies Lose yourself just tryin' to find Everybody's lookin' for something real or something more And I need something I can't ignore Redemption, redemption Redemption, redemption
