Put it to the Match

Walking towards my future
With nowhere to go
Looking forward to life
Yet I’m dead inside
Damn… Put it to the match

Sadly I’m on empty
Yet my soul’s full
I sadly went wrong
But I was right
Damn… Put it to the match

God knows my future
Healing my broken past
One foot to go
Yet miles off track
Damn… Put it to the match

Gone through my hell
Just to enter heaven
Lost my fricken mind
Just by being kind
Damn… Put it to the match

Burning with passion inside
Without any foolish pride
Looking for Mrs. Right
Morning, noon and night
(pause)
Damn… Damn… Damn… Light another fricken match

Gone are many yesterdays
Facing my empty days
Looking for her hand
Was my heart’s demand
Damn… Put it to the match

My pilot lights lit
But alone at night
Framed many with art
Direct from my heart
Damn… Put it to the match

Treading softly in life
Yet surrounded by death
Never broke the line
Pass me more wine
Damn… Put it to the match

I wrote many things
For that single ring
Filled with much pain
Hit me yet again
Damn… Put it to the match

Damn… damn… damn… Where’s my dam match?

You’re my love match
Simply my prized catch
You’re that simple itch
that I can’t scratch

Damn… damn… damn…
(pause)
Can you spare a match?
