lyrics

I spend most of my days begging for forgiveness
Whipped just like a soppin’ wet slave dog
That woman's imprisoned me for far too long
I think it’s ‘bout time I up and moved on
I’m gone, I’m gone

I slip away and crawl towards the back door
Her poisoned chains of love I won’t wear no more
She had me believing in the fire
I’m taking off before the flames rise
I’m gone, I’m gone

But she knows, yeah she knows
I’ll come crawling back tomorrow

I need a one way train far away from here
Don’t care where just need to start again
The whistle blows and I hear the all aboard
But my feet stay frozen solid to the floor
