Self-Righteous Fool

I spent 20 long years doing time
I'll spent 20 more just trying to find
A place where I belong
Somewhere to sing my song
But for now I'll just roll on down the line

I've burned so many bridges before
Never looked back as I went storming out the door
I want all that to change
It really should, at my age
But for now I'll just roll on down the line

But please don't try to save me
I have my own sense of internal glory
It's not like the pride we learned in school
But it's the only way to be a self-righteous fool

Somehow, out on the open road
I breathe better, my mind clears from under the load
I don't stay anywhere long
In my soul it just feels wrong
So for now I'll just move on down the line

But please don't try to save me
I have my own sense of internal glory
It's not like the pride we learned in school
But it's the only way to be a self-righteous fool
