I Stole The Right to Live Songtext
von Michael Hurley

I stole the right to live as if there was no time.
I stole the eyes of God as if those eyes were mine.
I took and did infuse a light that was to shine.

Oh, Mercy! Lord, have a pity!
I′m only traveling; I don't have no place to go.


I walked the streets of gold and heard the silver tongue.
I passed out on Satan′s Hill and made my bed on stone.
Forsaken hearts I wandered; I left them all alone.

A long ways goin' out and have no destiny.
A long ways to believe dreams that come to be.
I swear they're true a-bloomin′ here before me.

Oh, Mercy! Lord, have a pity!
I′m only traveling; I don't have no place to go.
