Well the loblolly pines they shade the light out of my eyes
And I can finally see just what is going on
I've made my mistakes oh Lord and I just wanna break
But my family's hangin on my heart and soul
And this road that I've made it ain't the one that I'd take
If I had the choice like I did back then
My baby boy is soon to be and goddamn it just kills me
To know my path is beat in front of him
The creator talks everyday just helping me to find my way
Or tearin' me apart in my own mind
But the walk down this spring it seems to help with everything
As I start sinking right into the hillside
Now the vines are overtaking me and the water running on my feet
Is say it feels an awful lot like home
The smell of seng fills the air with a north wind combing through my hair
There's no place I would rather go
And this road, gets lonely
I've seen the bottom of the well
But I know this can save me
Cause I finally feel I've came back out of hell
Guess I finally broke that spell
Now I'm pushin' 90 down the road just wondering where the hell to go
With my troubles likely gaining on me
No matter where the ol road ends they're waiting for me there again
Well I'll drown em out with some tonic in my gin
My body seems to tell me no cause I can't even stay afloat
In the lake of fire that I woke up in
And it's the same sad songs bout all the shit that I've done wrong
Go ahead and call me the prodigal son
And this road, gets lonely
I've seen the bottom of the well
But I know this can save me
Cause I finally feel I've came back out of hell
Guess I finally broke that spell
