Lyrics

He shivers 'neath a gun metal sky
His demons perched on the black ash clouds
Seeking shelter, he cannot hide
Prays to be saved, but not too loud

He prays for the soul of the man left behind
Sold that soul to the crack shack hounds
He lost his money, he lost his mind
to a slave when he craves, no mercy found

On a slow hard ride down the road to hell
lined with hollow souls and empty shells
in the dark their slivered hearts all have a story to tell

Those who pass him by turn away his eyes
Despite the sight of this lonesome crowd
Oh, but they don't know what he feels inside
When he lays his shame, where he once stood proud

On a slow hard ride down the road to hell
lined with hollow souls and empty shells
in the dark their slivered hearts all have a story to tell
He shivers 'neath a gun metal sky
