Living, son, it ain't no crime,
You know that men like you die all the time
Well, nobody stays in their place
No matter how I might chain to the floor
In the morning, I'll be gone
In the morning, I'll be gone
I'll never plan what I'll become
Thought that my mind'd stay as pure as it was
From the passing car, I heard the chorus
And I heard them in the street
Writing 'A', 'U', and 'M'
Reading everything into each word of them
I said a prayer on the plane
Carry me back to whatever there was
These chains that read 'You're born of sin'
I'm tired of all that I've been
I felt relived, I fell asleep
'Til the descent, when I woke to see
The lights of New York City glowing gold for me
