[Verse 1]
The sun is coming up over the hill
Or maybe it's not I can't even tell
But there's a warmth on my face
That isn't the blood
And my tears are turning
The snow into mud
And I can't feel my left leg
But I think it's still there
Did I k** anybody?
Hell, I never fight fair
What state am I in?
Am I still on the run?
Has it really been so long
Since I've seen the sun?
My instincts are telling me
To pick up and go
But I can't feel my fingers
And I can't move my toes
There's a drained bourbon bottle
Laying next to my head
And the piss and the vomit
Are the sheets on my bed
[Chorus]
Is it you? Could it be you?
Don't want it to
[Verse 2]
I went out all night drinking
So I took the bait
And I jumped off the interstate
To Highway 8
To the bars full of girls
Who all know me by name
They all drink the same drinks
And they all f** the same
Now my eyes are turning red
In this hotel bar
And she's breathing out smoke
As she motions towards the door
The kindness of a stranger
Or a trick of the trade?
God knows I'm not the first mistake
That she's made
[Chorus](2x)
[Bridge]
I been down and out
I been spit on for so long
I stored my shame in my belly
'till I needed to be strong
In my last guilty whim
I stole a map and a truck
It's pure chance
That I haven't already been picked up
But from here on the slate's clean
I'm heading way south
Always heard the girls were pretty there
I got to find out!
Look Ma your son's a traveling man!
I don't know what I did
But I'll do all the good that I can
[Outro]
Could it be you? (5x)
