I'm shaking hands with the devil again
He's got my past and it's all just pain
I'm a poor man and time keeps wearing on

Took my ticket, I'm cashing it in
Cause my self hatred's so embedded within
Lost my soul to him
And time keeps wearing on

Cross this border and see where life leads
Lose myself in my selfish deeds
I'm a worthless man
And time keeps wearing on

Like a tidal wave
Pushed me down

Slip the wheels of change
Hands are out of reach
Things will never be the same
I've got myself to blame
Save me please deliver me

I'm shaking hands with heaven again
Forget my past and all that's been
I'm a new man
And time keeps wearing on

Sick and tired, I have no control
This whole life has taken it's toll
I'll take my chances
And throw caution to the wind

I dictate the wheels of change
I'm shaking hands with myself again
It's best left to fate when I can't escape
The waves keep crashing down

Like a tidal wave
Pushed me down

Slip the wheels of change
Hands are out of reach
Things will never be the same
I've got myself to blame
Save me please deliver me
