Lyrics

When you wake up in the morning and you ask yourself "Why does it even matter if I exist at all? If I'm going through the motions And my better days have passed Should I even stick around? Do I have the wherewithal?" You thought you were destined to conquer anything Put yourself into the thickness and the joy the chaos brings Swing at every fastball and knock it out the park Explode the lights in fury Billy Ringo in the Dark Life came down upon you with the weight of fallen worlds The sound of scrеaming dogs in the silence fеtal curled Til no drink or pain reliever can afford a small relief From the night sweats of the morning after dreams in bitter sleep You wake up in the morning And you travel through your day And you laugh at all the good jokes Then nonchalantly go your way And go out for the evening For some drinks and smokes with friends Then leave them with a smile As you walk back home again Light the candles slowly For the shadows they will cast Leave unanswered questions For other folks to ask Escape the burdens looming In answers bold and stark In the first new dawn of sunlight Billy Ringo in the Dark
