"On My Way (Demo)" lyrics

I had one to kill this man
But he turned around and
Karate that I learned in Japan
It wouldn't leave a trace
He wouldn't see my face
I wouldn't use a bullet
'Cause a bullet's a disgrace

Oh, mom, I never thought I was a murderin' man
But tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way

There's a drawer that I know
In a house up the road
With the kind of things
That are easily sold
If they go out of town
I would go and snoop around
And make myself rich
Off the things that I found

Oh, mom, I never thought I was a stealin' man
But tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way

I was sitting in the bleacher
Staring at the speaker
Reading his lips
But I couldn't understand
So I opened up my ears
Clearly I could hear
A detailed story
All about a grain of sand

All my life I'd dreamt of being a good listener
So tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way

I moved across the street
From this kid you gotta meet
He's got spirit and heart
We're ten years apart
He is up for anything
He can hang with anyone
He still likes the things
We used to think were fun

I've always dreamed of having a friend
So tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way

I'm in love with someone
Who's as pretty as a flower
Her life gives me power
So I'm buying her a ring
She makes hats with her hands
She's such an artist
I'm her biggest fan
And I'm teaching her to sing

Oh, mom, I never thought I could love no one
So tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way
Tonight I'm on my way
