You were a cast away from New Orleans
Fought the world to find your dreams (Oh yeah)
Almost starved to death because you had no money

Sold your soul for blood and honey (Oh yeah)
Cars crash and we collide
As the siren sings the saddest song tonight
And this is it, how it all comes down
To the blood you would leave
On the streets of your hometown

At the edge of the rest of your life
At the end of a one way road
I was losing everything
And tonight may never shine
If you never open your eyes
I keep this heart right next to mine

I was a cast away from New Orleans
Fought the world and found my dreams
Your heart had to let me go
And now I'd rather die than ever be alone
