From the recording American Crime
Lyrics
IT AIN'T ME
One foot on the pedal
Another in the grave
But it ain't me
It ain't me
Just another lost soul
One that can't be saved
It ain't me
No, it ain't me
One hand says I'm right on time
Another one says I'm late
And then there's the man
Who don't give a damn
But no, no, it ain't me
One boy coming home from war
Another one in his grave
It ain't me, thank god
It ain't me
Someone dying on the streets tonight
Another wasted dream
It ain't me, so far
It ain't me
And one hand says I'm right on time
Another one says I'm late
And then there's the man
Who don't give a damn
But no, no, it ain't me
And boundaries not forged
And fears of failure
And years of wasting away
Well I'm standing on the edge
Yet so firmly planted
But no, no, no it ain't me
I said no, no, no it ain't me
No, no, no it ain't me
No, no, no it ain't meI
I'm the one nobody wants
And the one they want to be
It ain't me
No, it ain't me
Just another dreamer
With a runaway plan tonight
It ain't me
No, it ain't me
And one hand says I'm right on time
Another one says I'm late
And then there's the man
Who don't give a damn
But no, no, it ain't me
