"The Long Road" lyrics

I raged all night against the dying light
Blinded by the break of the day
I never lay down always put up a fight
I never stopped running away
I was a child growing up so fast
Hoping the fear that I felt would pass
Trouble and pain it was all the same
Live or die didn't care anyway

Never told
Didn't know...

I was a wild young man on a mission
Money, fame and few fine women
Said "it's my life and I'm gonna live it"
(Ahhh ahhh)
Now it's high time I paid for the sinnin'
Prayin' all night, but won't be forgiven
So I hit the long road to perdition
(Ahhh ahhh)
I ain't coming back

Growing up fast but the pain still lasted
That's why I learned how to fight
Busted up jaws and broken hearts
Couldn't see the wrong from the right
Saw a whole lotta not so good
More than anybody ever should
I never crawled once never backed away
I finally made it out to the light

I didn't see
Inside of me

I was a wild young man on a mission
Money, fame and few fine women
Said "it's my life and I'm gonna live it"
(Ahhh ahhh)
Now it's high time I paid for the sinnin'
Prayin' all night, but won't be forgiven
So I hit the long road to perdition
(Ahhh ahhh)
I ain't coming back
I ain't coming back

I was a wild young man on a mission
Money, fame and few fine women
Said "it's my life and I'm gonna live it"
(Ahhh ahhh)
Now it's high time I paid for the sinnin'
Prayin' all night, but won't be forgiven
So I hit the long road to perdition
(Ahhh ahhh)

I was a wild young man on a mission
Money, fame and few fine women
Said "it's my life and I'm gonna live it"
(Ahhh ahhh)
Now it's high time I paid for the sinnin'
Prayin' all night, but won't be forgiven
So I hit the long road to perdition
(Ahhh ahhh)
I ain't coming back
I ain't coming back
