VERSE
It all went bad, I'm way far off track
Burning bridges behind, it's turning black
Stumble and crawl, forced down this dark path
Leave it all, it's gone, I can't go back

CHORUS
To the dirt where they bury dreams
Over rocks past haunted trees
On my bloody hands and battered knees
To the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt where nothing leaves
Forever the future sleeps down deep
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams

VERSE
I took my chance, I took off too high
On a wing made of stone, I could not fly
Falling from grace, I took a hard dive
Crashing down so fast, I'm dead this time

CHORUS
To the dirt where they bury dreams
Over rocks past haunted trees
On my bloody hands and battered knees
To the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt where nothing leaves
Forever the future sleeps down deep
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams

BRIDGE
There ain't no grass by the dry lake bed
The only water here is my tears and sweat
Headed to my final place of rest

CHORUS
To the dirt where they bury dreams
Over rocks past haunted trees
On my bloody hands and battered knees
To the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt where nothing leaves
Forever the secrets keep down deep
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt, to the dirt, to the dirt where they bury dreams

To the dirt where they bury dreams
To the dirt where they bury dreams

To The Dirt

VERSE
I'm gonna be around, no way I'm leaving now
I've never been any better
I see a brighter hue, all of the color true
Green and blue and red are bolder, better

CHORUS
In the morning when the new sun rises, I'll be there by your side
In the midday with a gold sun shining, I'll be there by your side
When your daydream calls from the horizon, I'll be there by your side
After midnight when the full moon's flying, I'll be there, by you, by your side

VERSE
No need to race ahead, ain't gonna fall behind
I like it here, it's so fine
It's perfect on your left or maybe right is best
Either way, we're together, better

PRE-CHORUS
We're always getting closer
I'm happy on your shoulder
Close to your lips, I kiss
You are my line of sight
You make it look all right
The view from next to you I love

CHORUS
In the morning when the new sun rises, I'll be there by your side
In the midday with a gold sun shining, I'll be there, by you, by your side
When your daydream calls from the horizon, I'll be there by your side
After midnight when the full moon's flying, I'll be there, by you, by your side

VERSE
I'm all nitro, mixing with gasoline
Ignite me, spark me, my fuel is clean
That big old road right there in front of me
Well let's get on out and let's go
Places far and high, never running low
Ride while we're hot, taking our best shot

My blood burns when you light the match
I breathe fire when you light the match
We take off, we don't come back
When you, when you, when you light the match

We're like nuclear fission in a slipstream
Energized rocket in a booming dream
Our flame it never goes out, we'll see
Well let's leave this ground and let's fly
Mountains down below, we'll be getting high
Start never stop, take it off the top

I touch this perfect shape, such perfect curves
This work of art, I give respect, man, it deserves
I feel the power inside
I hold it close, I hold it tight

My finger's on your trigger, it's a beautiful gun
My finger's on your trigger, bullet set to stun
Six shots to come, loaded for love
My finger's on your trigger, it's a beautiful gun

Pressed to your skin, straight to your heart, my aim is true
You know I'll pull it smooth
My steady hand, I love to shoot

This May Be the End

VERSE 1
I've been to the edge before
Beat and broke, leaning on death's door
Through black night and frigid day
But it never ever felt this way
 
CHORUS 1
This may be the end, the way I'm falling down
This may be the end, how I hit the ground
This may be the end, it's all so desperate now
This may be the end, the way I'm falling down
This may be the end
 
VERSE 2
I've been on my knees, oh lord
Neck exposed, cold blade of the sword
Hands tied tight, no time to pray
Still it never ever killed my faith

CHORUS 2
But this may be the end, the way I'm falling down
This may be the end, how I hit the ground
This may be the end, it's all so desperate now
This may be the end, the way I'm falling down
This may be the end

This May Be The End

The Edge of the Edge
© by Marc David Blackwell and Dean Brantley Taylor

VERSE
My angry past stays hot on my tail
I set the land to fire, my feet burn on the trail
I move fast, can't stay in one place
They're after me, I'm after them, it's all a chase

CHORUS
I run risk to the edge of the edge
Race with trouble on the ledge of a ledge
I chose this path, I was not led
Going woman to woman, bed to bed
I run risk to the edge of the edge

VERSE
My hungry lust is insatiable
I get a bad desire, my gut aches to be full
I need more, go out for a taste
It's after me, I'm after it, I'm on a chase

VERSE
I leave screaming hearts back there in my wake
I bet their dreams and lost, my debts I cannot pay
I play chance, jackpot or I bust
Take bigger odds, I duck and dodge, I toy with luck

CHORUS

BRIDGE
It might a been different
If I'd given you my trust
But that was long ago, back in the shadows
Back in the dust

CHORUS

You might think you got me
You might think I'm done
I must admit, it don't look good
You got the bullets and you hold the gun

PRE-CHORUS
No no no no no
It's not over yet
No no no no no
So don't get confident

CHORUS
I've never lost before, ain't gonna be today
I've never lost before, I'm not dying this way
I've never lost before, ain't gonna be today
I've never lost before, I'm not dying this way

VERSE
You got all your army
You got me in chains
But I got fists, tricks and rage
Fight like the devil and I'll break your cage

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

BRIDGE 
I always beat the odds, defeat your best evil plan 
I do it hand to hand
You know, you know, I'm the stronger man
Yes I am
