Your Way Of Life

Your Way Of Life

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)
"

Lyrics i wrote twenty years ago I have the song in mp3 form, if you want to hear it just message me your email and I will send it to you in an attachment.

"

  

Run away into the night

But you can’t find the light

Innocents on your face

And your life is such a waste

Danger the game you play

Wipes the smile right off your face.

 

Chorus:

Blinded by the heat

Let loose on the street

Living night by night

It’s your way of life.

Another one just died

Someone took his life

No one seems to care

In your way of life.

 

Suddenly you are lost

You’ll do anything no matter the cost.

Now you’re taking the razors edge

Fight for your life a battle ahead.

Playing this game for keeps

Live or die decided tonight.

 

Chorus:

Blinded by the heat

Let loose on the street

Living night by night

It’s your way of life.

Another one just died

Someone took his life

No one seems to care

In your way of life.

Can't you have it converted to a cd? They do it for VHS tapes.

Wow, regardless of your age when writing it, this is really very good. It's sad but then alot of the best music can be. Great lyrics my friend. ;)

Powerful vision of the life and loss of those found in isolation and abandonment! The lyric quality adds to the depth of the vivid picture. Deep and rich! (I am from Tracy CA originally and frequented the Modesto mall when I was younger!)

Dale this is absolutely fabulous. I love it. I wish I could hear this. It's fantastic. The rhythm is great and the chorus is just perfect. In my book this is a hit.

FABULOUS just FABULOUS.

This goes to my favs.

Were you a singer in your band? Amazingly beautiful.

It's better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool
