VERSE 2

HERE THEY COME AGAIN ALL THOSE VOICES THEY'LL BE WITH ME UNTIL THE END

MAYBE IT HELPS THE PAIN HOW WOULD I KNOW I NEVER SLOW DOWN LONG ENOUGH

AIN'T LIFE FUNNY I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL EVER SEE YOU AGAIN

IN THE PAINTED SILVER LIGHT I'M WATCHIN' OH AND I'LL KEEP ON WATCHIN' YOU

VERSE 3

SEVEN DAYS I WATCH THE SUN COME RISIN' NO SLEEP FOR THE WICKED

SEVEN NIGHTS I LIE AWAKE WHILE MY MIND DRIFTS ACROSS VALLEYS AND STREAMS

SHADOWS EVERYWHERE BUT I SEARCH FOR SOME KINDA SIGN

IN THE PAINTED SILVER LIGHT I COME RUNNIN' OH RUNNIN'
