lyrics

Heavy loads
I’ve been taking a backroad laying low
But all my faults
Are coming loose in the back seat
So buckle in
We’re a long way from the main road

I’ve got the bends
From going too deep in my skin
The winding roads
Are cradling my path around the edge
But I’m on fire
Burning at both ends to find my way again

How long until I’m gone?
Until I’ve reached beyond your tries?
Keep me where I have been
I don’t want to lose my mind

Head first
Tripping over the tracks, I’m on my way
To your arms
Faithful and steadfast embrace
But the gun sounds
Hits behind my head to call my name back

How long until I’m there?
Until I’ve reached the other side?
To know that I won’t break
To know that I’m all right

Find me now, stepping out on hollow ground
Here I am, making my way to hallowed ground

How long until I’m there?
Until I’ve reached the other side?
To know that I won’t break
To know that I’m all right
