By Walter Egan

It's been a year too long
It's been a day too short
Now how can I be strong
I'm getting torn apart
It's getting tough to take it
Making a wreck of me
It's getting rough to make it
One break could set me free

Now don't you see one break is all I need
And I believe one break could set me free

Sometimes I wake up dreaming before it disappears
Sometimes I wake up screaming
Near vergin' on tears

Now should I walk the line
Or should I jump the fence
Is this the reign of reason
Or irrelevance
With each passing day
I grow a little num
I was an inch away
The taste was on my tongue
With every brand new day I grow a little num
I was an inch away the taste was on my tongue

Chorus
