I'll Take a Mile Lyrics

When I'm in the midst of danger
I treat all my friends like strangers
And I try to suppress my anger
Never lost my sense of soul
Never lost my faith in rock and roll
Slowly learning that you reap what you sow
Sometimes I feel like I am over my head
Sometimes I feel like I am left for dead
There days it's getting harder to live
When everyone I know's got nothing more to give
Except advice how I should get rid of what makes me who I am

But I'll know when I'm in too deep
All my secrets and my lies are mine to keep
Then I'll go and I'll take what I need and I'll discard the rest
I'll get it off my chest
I'm not going to let this moment end
Cause I'm not sure that it's gonna happen again
And I don't wanna be biding my time spending every last dime
Is this me giving in
But if it came down to it I would take the money and run

You wanna see how far you'll go
In the night time searching by starlight
I'd take the money and run
And your best prayers will go unanswered
I'd take the money and run
Last call for guidance 'cause I can't see through these rose-colored blinders
See you at the end of the road with the money in tow
I'm not going to let this moment end
Cause I'm not sure that it's gonna happen again
And I don't wanna be biding my time spending every last dime
Is this me giving in
But if it came down to it I would take the money and run
If it came down to it I would take the money and run
And I won't look back
I'd take the money and run
