"Tucson" lyrics

"Tucson"

All the money in the world won't take me where I need to go
You have afforded me mayhem from the start
Separated by an older version of the truth
Such a wretched thing that took away my youth
And I never had a clue why

I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby
But I was wrong, I ended up in Tucson
My life in your hands
I really don't know why you sold, sold me
Sold, sold me

All the money in the world will ultimately be my ruin
You could have it all, that's what you used to say
And I know I'm better off, I'm better off alone
It doesn't make it any easier to know
Everything I ever had
Gone

I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby
But I was wrong, I ended up in Tucson
My life in your hands
I really don't know why you sold, sold me
Sold, sold me

I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby, but I was wrong
I ended up in Tucson, struggling to keep going on
The end is not in sight and I am losing all will to fight
None of this was my choosing, my liberty I took for granted
Do you see the way they look at me when I'm in a crowd?
It's like I'm nothing anymore when all I see is the ground
And there is no respite, just shade, no light, no sun for me tonight
Can you imagine what that's like, can you imagine?

I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby
But I was wrong, I ended up in Tucson
My heart in your hands
I don't deserve this, do I?

(I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby
But I was wrong, I ended up in Tucson)

I thought I'd found a way out of here, baby
But I was wrong, I ended up in Tucson (Sold)
My heart in your hands (Sold)
I don't deserve this, do I? ([?], sold)
Do I? (Sold, [?])
(Sold, sold, [?])
(Sold, sold, [?])
(Sold, sold, baby)
