Lyrics
Mud caked heavy on the heel of my boot Swallowed down the poison trying to find the
Root Sold a piece of quiet for a pocket full of
Green Now I'm staring at the fire wondering what
It means Paid the toll man twice
Still stuck on the road Ain't no shoulder wide enough to carry this
Load Yeah, let me tell you about the cost of the
Climb Count the pennies paid the piper for losing
Track of the time Shook a hand in the dark, signed a line in
The dirt Told myself it was a blessing but I'm wearing
The hurt Bottle empty on the log, cold wind on the
Neck Dealer handed me the cards but he loaded the
Deck I don't beg, I don't fold, I don't ask for
A favor Got a bitter taste in truth that I'm learning
To savor We made a deal with the devil in the dead of
The night Traded all the morning calm for a piece of
The fight Now the bill comes due and the fire burns
Low Got a long way to walk and nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Cut the check, paid a man, washed the blood right off my hand
Took the gamble, rolled the bone Now we're sitting out here in the cold alone
We made a deal with the devil in the dead of the night
Traded all the morning calm for a piece of the fight
Now the bill comes due and the fire burns low
Got a long way to walk and nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to go
Fire's going out
Let it die
