I've been away 10,000 times and still I look in the mirror   What do I see?   An owl tryin' to fly in the light of day   Unaware of what's in my way   I can only find my place and I hope I'm wrong   I hope I'm wrong      By step by step....      Ooh here they come   Destroying my youth   And the other side's the same   When the rain pours   They'll cut us a loop and another nail      I've been asleep for most of my life and still it looks familiar   The people I meet are callous,   Taking life in another way,   Contrived in the words they say,   Keeping time with the wolves at prey and I hope I'm wrong   I hope I'm wrong      Ooh here they come   Destroying my youth   And the other side's the same   When the rain pours   They'll cut us a loop and another nail      They will pay for   All the times we've come through   In the eyes of hate      When will I make it?   And is the world worth taking?   When will I make it?      Ooh here they come   Destroying my youth   And the other side's the same   When the rain pours   They'll cut us a loop and another nail
