Turn Me Loose

Black clouds in the sky, to late to try
To move and make a change begin
There’s no one to entrust, can’t hide but I must
‘Cause there’s a prize on my head

Turn me loose to burn the fuse of life
I’m going to break the chains
And turn me into me again

Out on the run on my way from the gallow
But I can’t make a move without no alibi
I was sentenced to die
‘Cause the witness was a lie

Turn me loose to burn the fuse of life
I’m going to break the chains
And turn me into me again

I’m out, out on the edge of time
See the boy insulted and nearly blind
Who rose for the stars he could never find
Don’t try to tell me why
I’m gonna die

Winners and losers
And givers and users, it’s all a game
But if you’re down and out
Then who’s to blame

Turn me loose to burn the fuse of life
I’m going to break the chains
And turn me into me again
