Well she was fighting for something steady
And I was fighting her all fours and ready for
Anything that felt too heavy
Got damn good at leading her on

But now she's gone
I let her go without a second thought
Now I'm the only one that can't move on
Still wanting it,

That flame blew out in a cross-fade wind
And I don't know if it'll get lit again
I watched your taillights fade in a red sunset
And now I'm tryin' like hell to try and forget
That

It's broken, you're long gone
Everythin' that coulda been, went wrong and
I tried, my

I heard you moved out to South Carolina
Just like you always said we would
Packed your bags in that old 4Runner
That I bought you when things were good
I'm glad to see the stop sign didn't hit ya
Bring you back to your senses
Oh, it waved you gone, goodbye
Yeah, it wa

Oh, oh
Oh, oh

I'm pretty good with a hammer and a nail
I've been known to do it myself
There ain't much in this house that I can't fix
We been beat, but it ain't broke yet
Got a few loose strings, hangin' by a thread
Honey, I don't know much these hearts got left

I'm a wreck, I'm a mess
Girl since you left, I confess getting over you feels so wrong
Forgive and forget
That's what they said I gotta do to get through the moving on
Got step right the other step's holding on strong

But the talk of the pine trees, girl they remind me

Marlboros and Moonshine
Hellbent on moonlight
Everything you hate by town
I was just a loose end, no plans
Beat down broke man
Caught in a landslide going down

I was a wreckless child
A dead-end mile
Livin' my life on the run
I was a long lost soul
A twi

Good lord, we had a good long run
Runnin' down dead end streets
Two hearts like a loaded gun
Shootin' down stars and dive bar drinks
You said you love the wind, yeah, love to roll with it
It ain't a picket fence you're after
We used to be on the same damn page
Now it'

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down
Sooner or later, God'll cut you down

Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter

Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?
Is this some kind of test, or will it be like this forever?
‘Cause I ain’t ever see a cloud this dark
And I ain’t ever been down this far
Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?

I know it ain't gonna be no ea

Well, I was only scared of the devil and her dad
So we parked somewhere we knew they'd never look
Naw, I've never seen nothin' like her
Playin' with the flame of her momma's lighter
Naw, it wasn't very long 'fore I was hooked

Heaven was a preachers spot
In that first ch

I can't stand the thought of
Goodbye really being goodbye
This house can't get any colder
The way you slammed that door
And threw your car in drive
Never looked over your shoulder

Is this really over?
'Cause I need some closure
And it's 10 am and I'm still getti

Yeah, we're only human But that don't mean that we can't change I can hurt you, you can hurt me But we feel each other's pain And that's what makes us human That I could break your heart in two

Weatherman said there's a storm rolling in
And I'm checking my phone wondering where she's been lately
I been going crazy
My new nine-to-five is sitting outside
Not gettin' over her
Ain't for lack of trying daily
I been going crazy
Maybe that rain will wash away my pa

Life around me is changing too fast
And you can't replace what stuck in the past
People you meet they soon fade away
But if they willing to leave don't beg them to stay

Life goes on with or without 'em
Only pain comes from thinkin' about 'em

Moving on is the best way

I went looking at pictures I didn't wanna see
They brought back memories
You look happy, I guess, got the life that you wanted
But it ain't with me
You would think by now that I wouldn't care
It's been a couple years
And yeah, I've had my share of other broken up hearts

We've been swingin’ and missin'
It ain't broke yet, but damn, it needs fixin’
Been a while since your kiss felt like kissin'
It's just different

We've been talkin' 'bout forever since we been together
Somethin' 'bout a ring makes you think we’re better
Off with all this

Before this battlefield
We were on our way to better days
Rollin' like a freight train with no brakes into the future like we had it made
I can see the smoke rolling off your gun
And them lips telling me we're done
Sometimes some of them shots you just can't outrun

When

This is where it ends
I been down a few broken roads that I'm tryin' to mend
But this is where it ends
And I'm breakin' down
You were lyin' when you said that you were tryin' to work things out
But now I'm broken down

Went to battle for you always
Fought for you on

My world has fallen, I'm fallin' to my knees
Oh, yeah, and now, I feel my hands tremblin'
Oh, Lord, ain't no promise, I'll breathe again
But, I won't back down

For my family, you can ransom me
Had it hard, it broke me to my knees
In the foreign, I'm drivin' furious like

She's got the look
Damn right she owns it
She'll break your heart in this bar and she knows it
She'll ask you for a light
Keeps one in her pocket
She'll getcha' just enough to get you walkin'
Right outside, into the night
Watch the sparks fly from a Marlboro light
