    A last reflection on a life of pain and solitude.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song is about a man who is facing his death and reflecting...
    although there are some elements of myself in here...

    Lyrics
    I sit here in this jail cell wailing out this song.
    Not much to hold on to, the gallows at dawn.
    I don't know what happened.
    I just wound up here.
    I guess life has a way of taking you down.

    I used to know a life with freedom and love.
    But those times have long since gone and left me in a rut.
    I haven't seen the good Lord.
    In many a long year.
    He left me standing, empty handed... down.

    --

    I'd like to pass on my wisdom, as little as I may have.
    Give the younger generation something to look at.
    When you think you're at the bottom.
    With nothing left in life.
    Set yourself back, look where you're at...
    Set yourself back, Look where I'm at...
    Set yourself back...

    Each night when the sun goes down I think I'm in hell.
    I see death on the horizon.
    I stretch out, close my eyes, and drift off from this cell.
    But I still feel the chains on.
    Let my damnation take me down.
    Guilty and torn.
    Lying here amongst the quiet sound
    Of the moaning of unrepentent souls.

    Set yourself back... look where you're at...
    Set yourself back... look where I'm at...
    Set yourself back...
