LEFT IN THE DARK

Lyrics

Verse 1
You sold the map, then burned the road
Left me alone with a heavy load
Mud on my boots, teeth in my jaw
I learned the truth in the crack of the flaw

You took the gold, left me the rust
Said “hold it down,” then turned to dust
I hear your name in the busted gate
I spit that out, I do not wait

Pre-Chorus
Hands in the air
I’m past the hurt
You want my fire
You get this dirt

Count your steps
Count your lies
I came back mean
With bloodshot eyes

Chorus
Left in the dark
Left in the dark
You left me
Left in the dark

Left in the dark
Left in the dark
I came back hard
I came back sharp

Verse 2
Chain on my neck, ice in my stare
You made your bed in the poison air
Now I walk through the wreck you made
No prayer, no peace, no back road fade

Knuckles white on the microphone
I drag that pain like a loaded stone
Every old wound got a hungry spark
I feed that flame when you left me dark

Pre-Chorus
Hands in the air
I’m past the hurt
You want my fire
You get this dirt

Count your steps
Count your lies
I came back mean
With bloodshot eyes

Chorus
Left in the dark
Left in the dark
You left me
Left in the dark

Left in the dark
Left in the dark
I came back hard
I came back sharp

Bridge
Break it down
Hear that roar
I was the ghost
Now I’m the war

Stone in my chest
Steel in my throat
You left a spark
I built a smoke

Chorus
Left in the dark
Left in the dark
You left me
Left in the dark

Left in the dark
Left in the dark
I came back hard
I came back sharp
