Dust‑Line Redemption

Letra

Miles Down The Road - HARDY / Zeiders Cut (Verse 1) Pulled you from the wreckage when the whole thing caved in Mouth-to-mouth when you couldn't breathe again Didn't want a thank you, just watched you get back on your feet You needed a crutch and I was bleeding underneath Then you went cold, yeah you flipped it out the blue Made me the villain for doing right by you (Pre-Chorus) Spent all those nights running circles in my head Reading every text like scripture, every word you said It wasn't what I did, wasn't some price I didn't pay You just owed a debt you didn't wanna pay (Chorus - BIG, minor, gang vocal on the last line) Now I'm on the high road, tail lights in the dust You're still down there swinging at ghosts and rust Heard you're barely living, just getting through the day And damned if I don't still hope you find your way I ain't bitter, I ain't carrying that grudge I'm just miles down the road letting time be the judge (Verse 2 - Zeiders pocket, almost spoken) Rescue hands don't get erased, tell me how that works Build a bridge to save you and you burn it just to watch it burn I don't need the why now, I don't need the truth You're still that lost kid that never found roots You can call me the bad guy if it helps you sleep at night If making me wrong's what makes you feel right (Pre-Chorus 2 - strip it down, just kick and bass) Yeah, you were surviving, never even trying to be free (Chorus - HEAVY, full band slam) Now I'm on the high road, watching from afar You're still fighting battles, still picking at scars Heard you're barely making it, just living day to day Crazy as it sounds, I still hope you find your way I ain't bitter, I ain't holding any kind of grudge Just miles down the road letting time be the judge (Bridge - HALFTIME, the HARDY moment) I ain't that boy bleeding in the middle of the wreck Took ten months, but I cut that rope off my neck I forgive the silence, I forgive the shade But I don't forget the price that I paid (Breakdown Chorus / Outro - whisper to scream) No hard feelings... Just miles down the road. Yeah, I'm miles down the road, Letting time be the judge. I hope you find your peace out there.
