sometimes music really IS salvation.

the world don't owe me nothing

even though i want it to

the world don't owe me happy

the world don't owe me a love like you

the world don't owe me nothing

even though i'm on my knees

not the things i took for granted

not the things i thought i'd got for free

but i will lay all my troubles on the ground

in front of you, and play

let me play just one more song

that's my rescue

the world don't owe me flowers 

even though i planted seeds

the world don't owe me sunshine

the world don't owe me what i need

the world don't owe me a reason

for when the night's too long

the world don't owe me nothing

i don't understand all that's gone wrong

but i will lay dow my troubles on the ground

in front of you

and play

let me play just one more song

that's my rescue

the world don't owe me a highway

don't owe me a tree

the world don't owe me an easy way out

here it comes again,

another kind of pain

and i will lay all my troubles on the ground 

in front of you

and play

let me play just one more song

that's my rescue

(thanks, catie curtis. 

this is one of those need-it-like-air songs for my soul. 

and a timely, timely find.)
