It seems like I walked down this lonely road before,
Falling for a woman or a story or a line then booted right out the door.

I've seen your face in mine
It takes me back through time
It plays on through my mind
It's just my living karma.

Waiting in a nowhere place
Waiting for a nowhere face
A soul's life retraced
With that living karma.

A whole head full of ideas and no place to go,
Back of the room with my head hung low.
Pushing, clawing, fighting everything,
Just for my last shot at the brass ring.
The world takes me on, I play it all cool
Something always happens and I end up a fool,
It's just like a broken record that keeps going around
And it doesn't stop playing till it hits the ground.

I've seen your face in mine
It takes me back through time
It plays on through my mind
It's just my living karma.

Waiting in a nowhere place
Waiting for a nowhere face
A soul's life retraced
With that living karma.

I've seen your face in mine

It's just my living karma.

Waiting in a nowhere place
Waiting for a nowhere face
A soul's life retraced
With that living karma.

You stick the needle in
You face life's deadly grin
That's how the hell begins with your living karma.
Living once again,
Lifetimes never end
You try to end it then you
Have more living karma.

A whole head full of ideas and noplace to go,
Back of the room with my head hung low.
Pushing, clawing, fighting everything,
Just for my last shot at the brass ring.
The world takes me on, I play it all cool
Something always happens and I end up a fool,
It's just like a broken record that keeps going around
And it doesn't stop playing till it hits the ground.

Record round and round
Until it hits the ground
Nothing will keep me down,
With my living karma.

Praying it'll change someday
And life will go my way
But that's the price you pay
With a living karma.

It's just my living karma.
