From the morning To the night Like the birds, I've been trying to live a simple life It's not as easy As it looks But I'm still young with a lot of life left in my books Driving solo Always seemed The only way that I could go as fast as I can breathe But hey, relay this message to the many I proceed If you go alone and break your bones On who you gonna lean? Turn the light on And leave the door open wide I need to be as close as I can get to your side Dark shadows Been playing dirty tricks on my mind And I resign, I'm not designed for being the pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Body's shaken To the core As if I all consisted of was violently at war And wide eyes Wish they'd sleep I need an intervention, somebody to comfort me 'Cause I ain't playing make-believe, I cope with everything in reach 'Cause it's the best that I can do On my own, but it's killing me So turn the light on And leave the door open wide I need to be as close as I can get to your side Dark shadows Been playing dirty tricks on my mind And I resign, I'm not designed for being the pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Great One of divinity I'm ready, come and lead me Turn the light on And leave the door open wide I need to be as close as I can get to your side Dark shadows Been playing dirty tricks on my mind And I resign, I'm not designed for being the pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life Pilot of my own life
