Byron Black

Autopilot Off
(album: Make A Sound)

I met a man named Byron Black
And he carried his life strapped to his back
On a sidewalk in Houston he called home
Crying ´Don´t you forget me´ he said
Don´t you forget me
You don´t know
What it´s like to walk alone
You don´t know
And I hope you never will

Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
And what can I do now?

Faces of people he would see
They were colder than any city street
And the days go on and on
And they just walk by
He said "I´m disappearing"
He said "I´m disappearing"
You don´t know
What it´s like
To walk alone
You don´t know
And I hope you never will

Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing

And we all were given names
But our hearts don´t work the same
By-products of an evolution
Lost souls look for a lost solution
Now...

Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
Every stride
Wears the soul more thin
Until it´s slowly worn down to nothing
No!
