The Road To Hell And Back

Album: Reckless Thoughts (2023)

  • Before the sun rises you're on the miles of red dirt
    To find the limits of a scorched earth
    Don't come back late, don't come back light
    Don't show your scars when you get home tonight

    Resilience, it ain't a given, it's a gift
    And a burden not everyone can lift
    Turn the walk into wood, turn the wood into coal
    Turn the pain into voices coming straight from your soul

    Cutting through the heat
    Rising above the stacks
    You are singing
    On the road to hell and back

    You're a choir with no savior to be found
    You can cry or you can sing but you can't fall down
    Every time you wake up and walk out of that gate
    You know all too well you're tempting fate

    Cutting through the heat
    Rising above the stacks
    You are singing
    On the road to hell and back

    Cutting through the heat
    Rising above the stacks
    You are singing
    On the road to hell and back
    What fire has to burn
    Whose ground has to crack
    So you are singing
    On the road home
    On the road home
    From hell and back Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
