[Verse 1]

Oh I'm a man with the world in his hands

There ain't a thing that I can't have

Money and girls and the things of this world

Got my foot caught in a trap

[Verse 2]

All of these things have a hold on my brain

And they don't give my souls a chance

Heaven come down because I am hell bound

And the devil has asked my to dance

[Chorus]

I've been living on my own time

I've been living with my own pride

I've been living in a world without You

I've been caught up in my own lie

Stepping off onto a landmine

Oh lord, what could I do?

What could I do?

What could I do?

[Verse 3]

Holding the reigns even through all the pain

Hell bent on where I shouldn't go

Ran to the ground with my head in the clouds

This desert's as dry as a bone

I followed this path and I swore I'd come back

But I don't know what up and what's down

Dust from these storms have covered my tracks

If You're speaking, I can't hear the sound

[Chorus]

I've been living on my own time

I've been living with my own pride

I've been living in a world without You

I've been caught up in my own lie

Stepping off onto a landmine

Oh lord, what could I do?

What could I do?

What could I do?

Oh, what could I do?

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge]

Lord hear me please, I'm down on my knees

I don't feel I have a next breath

With all I can muster, I'm begging You, please

Spare me from that second death

With all that I've done and the distance I've run

Am I too far to take it all back?

The devil is staring down the barrel of his gun

And I need You, lord, to cover my back

[Chorus]

I've been living on my own time

I've been living with my own pride

I've been living in a world without You

I've been caught up in my own lie

Stepping off onto a landmine

Oh lord, what could I do?

What could I do?
