Well you fight like the devil to just keep your head above water Chained to whatever you got that you can't throw away And you're shootin' through space on this river of life that you're ridin' And it's whirling and sucking you deeper on down every day So you turn to your trusty old partner to share some old feelings And you find to your shock that your faithful companion is gone And the truth slowly dawns that you're lost and alone in deep water And you don't even know how much longer there is to go on Like an old Holy Bible you clung to through so many seasons With the rules of survival in words you could still understand When they prove something wrong you believed in so long you go crazy And you're so close to folding the cards that you hold in your hand Singing Holy Toledo I can't see the light anymore All those horizon that I used to guide me are gone And the darkness is driving me farther away from the shore Throw me a rhyme or a reason to try to go on
