I can’t keep on kickin’ this same can down the road
Runnin’ from my problems is startin’ to get old
Don’t know where I’m goin’ just tryin’ to find my way
If all goes well I’ll get there in time for judgement day

You know I try and try but my past is haunting me
It’s hard to live a lie when there’s Judgement beckoning
If I can make things right you know the truth will set me free
Then I can face my life on the day of reckoning

Check my rearview mirror, and don’t like what I see
What’s the point of drivin’ I’m runnin’ outta steam
The past is catchin’ up with me I gotta find some truth
Guess I’m out of options and now there’s no excuse

Because I try and try but my past is haunting me
It’s hard to live a lie when there’s Judgement beckoning
If I can make things right you know the truth will set me free
Then I can face my life on the day of reckoning

I can’t keep on kickin’ this same can down the road
Runnin’ from my problems is startin’ to get old
Don’t know where I’m goin’ just tryin’ to find my way
If all goes well I’ll get there in time for judgement day

You know I try and try but my past is haunting me
It’s hard to live a lie when there’s Judgement beckoning
If I can make things right you know the truth will set me free
Then I can face my life on the day of reckoning

Because I try and try but my past is haunting me
It’s hard to live a lie when there’s Judgement beckoning
If I can make things right you know the truth will set me free
And I’ll have changed my life by the day of reckoning
And I’ll have changed my life by the day of reckoning
And I’ll have changed my life by the day of reckoning
