Shelby Merry - Gallows lyrics

I spent a year out in the desert, I spent a year out in the sea I spend my nights under the stars just dreaming of sleep I still question where I've been I don't know where I will go I just look up to the skies like there's a sign I didn't see, I didn't know Lord can you bring me back home I know I've lived a wicked life, and I will never change my ways And unapologetic runaway until it's my last day Why is it so easy to light a match and watch? We were made of dried up timber We were made to turn to dust (Chorus) Take me on down At the gallows it was mercy I had found So I went back to my home and I burned it to the ground An angel sat beside of me, we both watched it all fall down "I'm a loner of a lover, I'm a lover of my ways So if you're hear to take me back, there ain't nothing left to save." (Chorus) Burned it all down At the gallows it was mercy I had found Take me on down At the gallows it was mercy I had found I made it to the edge, there was nothing left to see I lit one last cigarette, the angel sat beside of me I said, "I know you've got your job." He said, "The grace that I have brung is that your d**h is gonna save you from the things you're running from." (End chorus) Take me on down At the gallows it was mercy I had found Take me on down At the gallows it was mercy I had found At the gallows it was mercy I had found
