Keep The Pace

It's a lonely road
Out the door
You'd never know
I'd been there
It's a lonely place
Out there these days
Without a friend to lean on
I've never claimed to be strong
Sew my heart up with string
Make me feel
Help me sing
Will my heart open up for you

All your days you're getting older
You're getting stronger
But will you keep the pace

You've got bills to pay
Can't pay the rent
You're always late
And always bent
And though you know how the story goes
You'll lose your head then hope to hell
That all your soul will overflow
With all your words and all you've known
But will your heart open up for me
