It's a long road When you're on yor own And it hurts when they tear Your dreams apart And every new town Just seems to bring you down Trying to find peace of mind Can break your heart It's real war Right outside your front door I tell ya Out where they'll kill ya You could use a friend Where the road is That's the place for me Where I'm me in my own space Where I'm free That's the place I want to be Cause the road is long yeah Each step is only the beginning No breaks just heartaches Oh man is anybody winning It's a long road And it's hard as hell Tell me what do you do to survive When they draw first blood That's just start of it Day and night you gotta fight To keep alive It's real war Right outside your front door I tell ya Out where they'll kill ya You could use a friend Where the road is That's the place for me Where I'm me in my own space Where I'm free That's the place I want to be Any of you boys want to shoot Now is the time There isn't one of us That doesn't want to be someplace else But this is what we do, that we are Live for nothing or die for something Your call
