Richard Marx

There is no understanding in this hostile age
Sometimes I feel just like a rat locked in a cage
ItæŠ¯ hard to live beyond the walls
It ainæŠ° no life at all
But donæŠ° you tear it down

Take your chances, IæŠ£l take mine
Chasing thunder is only wasted time
Got no reason to walk that line
HeavenæŠ¯ waiting if I can make it home tonight

And with the years IæŠ³e found a faith that gets me by
It shows me the truth in a hurricane of lies
My babyæŠ¯ left a light for me
ThatæŠ¯ really all I need
They wonæŠ° bring me down

Chorus

Aimlessly rushing leaves you with nothing
You need some loving to make you feel alive
In less than a moment, life can be stolen
I know where IæŠ¦ going, gotta get me there tonight

IæŠ¦ holding on to what I can
Like any other lucky man
Love wonæŠ° strike me, love wonæŠ° sell me out

Chorus
