Blood 'N Sweat

I been riding on these wheels
Since I don't know when
Left home as a boy
Came back as a man
Listened to my daddy say
Boy, your heart and soul is your only friend

It was cold today
It was cold last night
It's been cold all year
Baby, it hurts inside
An innocent addiction stole my pride
Made me a lonely man

Baby, how soon we forget
We stare it in the eyes
See we haven't even lived yet
I tried to run, I couldn't catch my breath
We didn't die on love
We died on blood and sweat

I pulled myself together
But that took some time
Learned to sleep alone
Still don't know why
We lost the battle, baby
Surrendered to the word goodbye
