I shook my fist at my father's rage
I cursed my mother's sadess
Whatever home I tried to call my own

Washed in to that river of madmness

The raging surge the stagnant mire

Taste of bread embittered
Disconnected highway lines
Where souls like ours lay livid


Passing through I'm passing through
I might be gone tomorrow

Wild and worn I'm hanging on
To another day borrowed
It's another day borrowed


Money never bought me peace
The aftertaste of lust is bitter

Diamonds that shine in a stolen sky
Come circling down like glitter


Midnight water dark and high
It's pressing on the levee
Snakes are bound for higher ground

Me I'm almost ready

Passing through I'm passing through

I might be gone tomorrow
Wild and worn I'm hanging on
To another day borrowed

It's another day borrowed
