Karaoké Lonely Dirt Road Dax

When I need space that's where I go

A place to escape that nobody knows

Where I feel free to let things go

And face this evil that burdens my soul

I bring my hatred

I pack my pain

All the emotions

I cannot explain

It's where I found God and filled that hole

It's he, myself and I on that lonely dirt road

I needed somewhere to take my mistakes

I didn't want my family to see me cry

They'll never know I'm carryin' all of this weight

Dealin' with the pressure of tryin' to provide uh

No sign of struggle can show on my face

They ask if I'm okay

I just flash them a smile

Fire up that engine to take me away

I'm speedin' through emotions with every mile

On that road is where

I find my peace

I remember daddy told me 'bout some times like these

On that road is where my mind's at ease

I keep drivin' life away

Rejectin' change so

When I need space that's where I go

A place to escape that nobody knows

Where I feel free to let things go

And face this evil that burdens my soul

I bring my hatred

I pack my pain

All the emotions

I cannot explain

It's where I found God and filled that hole

It's he, myself and I on that lonely dirt road

I tried my best to plant the seeds and then

I watered everything that was in my life

But as a man the only flowers that you get are when you're six-feet under on the day you die uh

I think I feel the pain my father felt

It's finally sinkin' in

Lookin' back all I see is his eyes

He said that house is not a home unless you build it on respect with some kids and a lovin' wife uh

If these walls could talk

I bet they'd say it's all my fault

That I don't try hard

That I ain't man enough

That I ain't standin' up

That I just burn everything that my hands touch ooh oh

If these walls could talk

I bet they'd say I'm to blame

That I'm the one who put myself inside of all of these chains

That my addictive personality's what ran them away

And that I hurt myself by stayin' quiet and not explainin'

I'm broken in places

I can't even see

I know there's gotta be a Heaven 'cos the hell that's in me

Is takin' a dangerous toll that I'm payin' with all of my soul

When I need space that's where I go

A place to escape that nobody knows

Where I feel free to let things go

And face this evil that burdens my soul

I bring my hatred

I pack my pain

All the emotions

I cannot explain

It's where I found God and filled that hole

It's he, myself and I on that lonely dirt road
