My momma told me at the tender age of five Son, you're going to be the saddest man alive And I've been raging, bleeding with hatred running through my veins With fingers crossed been breeding pain along the way And now here I roam on my way there on this rocky road Still three feet to go down this cold and barren hole How have I made this far? Road goes on and though it all went wrong At the halfway bar I raise my gla** and flush the past away My momma told me at the fragile age of five Son, in your soul lies a cancer that'll eat you alive And there at the end of a rainbow was shining bucket a dirt I tried but was unable to shove it down to taste its worth And now here I am on my way there on this rocky road Now I understand I can't give in, I can't let go Glad I've made this far Road goes on and though it all went wrong At the halfway bar I raise my gla** and flush the past away And though I sing along with the same old song For as long as there's a pulse, a beating, I'll make it through the day Make it through the day yeah Road goes on and though it all went wrong At the halfway bar I raise my gla** and flush the past away And though I sing along with the same old song For as long as there's a pulse, a beating, I'll make it through the day Oh yeah I'll make it through the day
