One Shot

God, give me one shot and I'll break right through
I am starting to be brand newRome is burning you can taste the embers
I am walking hard on Spanish Stairs
My Saint was silence rapping on the door
Grown up defiant wanting so much moreMe brand new, say
(Starting over)
Me brand new, say
(Starting over)
Me brand new, say I sayGive me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a strangerWalk with millions, a delicate few
So sad how loneliness just follows you
New York City streets and avenues
Cut the concrete they march throughMe brand new, say
(Starting over)
Me brand new, say
(Starting over)
Me brand new, say I sayGive me one shot at my life today
One shot at my life today
I don't want to be a strangerI don't want to be just a passerby
Stand in line wrapped around the world
I don't want to be just a parasite
Holding on tight
Holding on tightI got this feeling and it's down in my bones
I got this feeling and it's burning up my soul
I got to get just one shot, baby one more day
Got to give me one shot today
I got this feeling just give me one day
