DJ DURAS - The Trucker's Tragedy Type 2 Lyrics

He drove the roads, an honest man
Worked hard to feed his little clan
A wife, three kids, his world so bright
Till darkness came one fateful night

Intruders came, their hearts so cold
Broke into his home so cold
His family trapped in terror's grip
Set the house aflame, their lives destroyed

Then the fire's light, his world burned down
His heart shattered on the ground
Desperation, anger's light
A trucker's heart consumed by night

Here, now before the smoldering ash
Tears and screams in a maddened flash
Police too scared to make a smite
A trucker's heart consumed by night

He knelt before the smoldering ash
Tears and screams in a maddened flash
Police too scared to make a stand
So he took justice in his own hand

Loaded his truck with gasoline fire
Drove into the camp, a vengeful pyre
Forty-four lives in a single sweep
A tragic end, a promise to keep

Then the fire's light, his world burned down
His heart shattered on the ground
Desperation, anger's might
A trucker's heart consumed by night

Years in prison, I'm gonna stride
Haunted by that fiery day
Least but lost a broken man
Wandering streets without a plan

On the streets, his life unwound
Until he met his final bound
Irony's twist, a tragic fate
Run down by a car at the station gate

On the streets, his life unwound
Until he met his final bound
Irony's twist, a tragic fate
Run down by a car at the station gate

Then the fire's light, his world burned down
His heart shattered on the ground
Desperation, anger's might
A trucker's heart consumed by night

Years to burn down
A trucker's heart consumed by night
Years in prison, I'm gonna stray
Haunted by that fiery day

Least but lost a broken man
Wandering streets without a plan
Shattered into my night
